A good read on back angle and hips during the squat. I see more and more people unnecessarily initiate the squat by pushing the hips excessively back, causing a dramatic change in back angle. Greg makes a good point that although certain body types are ideal and make obtaining these positions easier, it doesn't mean that taller people can't find the same success. https://www.facebook.com/GregEverettCA/posts/1188668884505108
