Squat Form Check

Hi all. Just started stronglifts so am starting light (40kg squat). Any help on form check would be greatly appreciated. I feel like I would have had mobility issues from years of running and not much mobility work so any pointers would be great. Cheers

What am I doing wrong on squats that I feel the inside of my left thigh straining during the lift?

I've posted videos here before and gotten no complaints regarding form. I don't think this is something that a video will show? Is it something like I am flexing the wrong muscle? I am pushing the wrong direction?

Whats the feeling I should go for on the way up? Pushing through feet, or heels? Pushing bar outwards or upwards? Squeezing thighs or lifting with glutes?

thanks

Knee pain from squats

Once I got up over 200lbs on my squats, I started experiencing a lot of knee soreness and tenderness.

It doesn't go away. Even when I'm off from the gym for two whole days, my knees hurt.

Just squatting down to get a pan in the kitchen, or anything like that, hurts like hell. I feel like I have the knees of an old man.

I am doing proper warm-up sets, and before I start squatting I do some stretches, nothing fancy, but I try to warm it up a little.

I am 41yo, male, 5'10", 225lb, and in good health. I am squatting just in shorts and Chuck Taylors. I'm keeping my weight on my heels pretty good, my knees and toes are in alignment throughout the full range of movement, and I'm not letting my knees cave inward.

What do?
