Cleaning up your squat form (back squats and box squats)

[Joe]

This is by far one of the better articles on squat form. It's a very in-depth analysis on how to squat properly filled with pictures as well for all you visual learners out there. It's a MUST read if you feel like you're having problems with your squat form.

Absolutely excellent article, Joe, a must read for everyone who squats. Shame so many learn their squat form from Rippetoe rather than articles like this.

Can you please elaborate on this? I learned squat form through Rippetoe and I don't see any difference between this article and what I already know.

Rippetoe's squat form will wreck havoc on your lower back if you're squatting any kind of weight.
