Jackknife Squat foot position#913

I am trying to understand which is better starting point for my form in the jackknife Squat. I can either squat all the way down but my feet are not flat on the ground or I can keep my feet flat but can’t squat all the way down. In both cases I don’t really need the arm support so maybe not doing it right in either case.

See this; it should have you covered https://support.hybridcalisthenics.com/869

If you still have the issue regardless of those tips, I’d say go down as far as you can and let your heels come up for the time being - but only if your ankles/knees don’t hurt because of it, if they do - only go as far down as your heels can keep contact with the floor with for :)
