This is an interesting article because the mathematics of the situation show that the deeper you squat the more tension you put on your cruciate ligaments. especially when you go past the 90 degree mark.

Isn't that bad tension ? Or am I mistaking

Deep squats end up with degeneration of the L5/S1. I can't even squat anymore!

There is no such thing as olympic squats because they aren't sanctioned in a powerlifting meet.... I'm guessing that means all the leg presses, curls, extensions he does aren't real either.
Stopped reading after his reasoning for not getting full depth was, don't squat low because most people can't.
