I've been doing some wall sits to build up my quads a little, 'cause to me they feel very weak in comparison to my hamstrings too. Not sure why, because I read that most women have weak hammies and stronger quads. Ah well, gotta deal with what you have.

I'm glad your form is improving. It gives me hope for myself!

As far as lifting the weight - I mean getting the bar from the rack/ground, where ever it starts, to your back/traps or shoulders to actually do the squat. (I think this is called a clean?)

I tried yesterday to squat with the bar again, and held it at my knees. Threw me off form, still, and I had to revert to goblet style.
