Bryanton et al. (2012) found that peak hip extensor moments increased with increasing depth (albeit with the same absolute loads) but Wretenberg et al. (1996) reported that peak hip extensor moments during both powerlifting squats and during Olympic weightlifting - style squats did not differ substantially between deep and parallel versions (deep = maximal knee flexion vs. parallel = posterior of the hamstrings parallel to the ground).

Correspondingly, the five phases that can be described between these positions are as follows: (1) the first pull happens between the ground and when the bar reaches knee level and is initiated by knee and hip extension; (2) the transition happens when the barbell is between knee level and the power position and involves a shift in the position of the body relative to the barbell, which involves a brief period of knee flexion and is therefore referred to as the double knee bend (Enoka, 1979; 1988); (3) the second pull is the most powerful phase of the lift and occurs while the barbell is between the power position and the lifter is in triple extension; (4) turnover occurs as the lifter quickly drops down under the bar from the triple extension position to the catch position, in a deep front squat; (5) recovery into the standing position occurs as the lifter stands from the catch position to upright.
