Squatting to full depth or below parallel? What should I strive for? What is the difference? Full depth (i.e. ass to grass) is essential range of motion in the healthy athlete.

Train it, practice it, and focus on perfect mechanics and consistency of depth before adding more weight on your hips, muscles and joints.
