A stance too wide for the squat. The feet are too far apart for a good deep squat. The squat depth is affected and the hips can’t go past parallel.
Solution
Place feet in a position so that the hips can go all the way down into a deep squat and past parallel.
Description
The wide stance affects the squat depth and also creates a pulling force on the hips when aiming to squat deep.
The stance should be such that the three squat joints are aligned and allow the hips to go all the way down without creating a pulling force on the hips.
This mistake can be due to height and working with two kettlebells, after cleaning, which requires a wider stance, the stance is not adjusted for a good deep squat.
A good way to find your stance is by spending time on a Goblet squat in the bottom position and moving from side to side while adjusting the feet.
The wide stance is not a problem for a Sumo Deadlift in which the objective is not to go deep.

That’s great. You fixed it. Next, you can improve even more by taking out the butt wink at the bottom of the squat, activate the hip flexors at the bottom. Well done.
