Three key factors to performing back squats correctly:
1) Place your feet approximately 6 inches wider than your hips to maintain a good solid base.
2) Locate an area in front of you that is slightly higher than your line of vision. Keep your eyes fixed on that spot throughout the set. It will help with your balance and stabilization.
3) Flex the lumbar muscles in your lower back. This will help you keep your back arched and your form tight.
Follow these basic rules and you will soon find your repetition groove which will help you focus on the lifting task on hand and not balance and form issues.
