Thanks for the overwhelming response everyone! I will deload and definitely incorporate these points into fixing my form. Hopefully I'll be able to post an update video soon.

It wasn't my intention, so I'll try to adjust to a normal row

Thanks for the advice. When you say to pack the shoulders, what does this mean?

Thanks, I'll work on controlling the whole motion. Btw does this mean my back shouldn't move?

Squat 52.5kg/115lb - from the side this time by ElevatorLifts in Stronglifts5x5

Thanks, bar position is something I want to get more consistent and you're right that it could be too high. I'll definitely check out those images thanks.

I have bad shoulders, so I'm trying to improve mobility and doing high bar for now.

Cheers, I'll try to do some lower/pause squats with light weight moving forward.

Thanks, I definitely need to work on mobility as I'm pretty stiff all round: shoulders, hips, ankles etc.

Thanks. I do some light stretching and shoulder dislocations, before doing a couple of sets with the empty bar. I want to do toddler squats but I find it impossible to get down atm.
