You can fail the squat for a variety of reasons: As mentioned above, the most common error is not reaching legal depth. This will automatically disqualify your lift even if you successfully complete the attempt. If you do not follow the commands, your lift will be disqualified. You must wait for the “Squat!” command to begin your descent and you must wait for the “Rack!” command to return the bar to the rack. If your feet move at all during or after the lift, and before you’re given the “Rack!” command, the squat will not count. Ray Williams just missed a 950 raw squat because of this. If at any time during the lift, the bar moves downwards, on either side, or both, the lift will be disqualified. The bar can stall in a certain spot, but it may not move downwards. Also, please note that if you choose to dump the bar, either over your head or off of your back, you will likely be disqualified from the event entirely. If you start to fail, ask the spotters to help and STAY WITH THE BAR. I’ll say it one more time: dropping the bar is grounds for complete disqualification from the contest.#CoachLaPink #squat#squatrules #coachlapink #enjoy https://www.instagram.com/p/8gxiYFrnlE/?igshid=yuj1swvsm9ax
