ATG Squat and knees

[Guest guest]

I read that Squat is beneficial for the knees. But I have some slight

anoyances. Like pinches when I am at rest. Mostly on my left knee, but

this is an old injury, very slight tear of miniscus. But I start to have

similar symptoms on the right knee too.

Should I refrain and go to just bellow paralel? Or it does not matter to go

ATG?

I practice the Squat with relatively good form for about 7 months. I go ATG

for the last 3-4 months. My 5RM is about 95-100 kgrs. I weight 82 kgrs.

ATG, but with light weights:

About parallel, with heavier weights. I corrected my form later:
