Make sure your feet are out far enough in front, so your knees are not out further, and keep your feet shoulder width apart pointing straight. Also go lighter on the weight. Form is really important here as you can do alot of damage to both your knees and back.

don't have to post 2x fallen. I asked you a few questions in the power lifting section.
