Guys if your that worried about your squats put some vids up.
In my experience with myself and my brother whom I have taught the power squat, gming the weight comes from a few things.
Weak Hips
Weak abs
weak hams/glutes (KINDRED -think knees forward in the hole here)
Stance width (this was a big one for me, I used to squat too close)
To fix it for my brother I had him do goblet squats to a box for 2 weeks before we even tried squatting again. Having a DB on his chest taught him chest up and how to use his abs, and Giving him a box gave his ass something to aim for which taught him how to use his glutes and hams to sit back onto. After that its just a matter of learning knees out.
After 2 weeks of progressively heavier goblet box squats he full box squatted 100kg+ (I forget the number), this was done raw and beltless.Not a massive squat but not bad for a total newb to any type of lifting.
