There are a lot of squat and deadlifting injuries, especially the low back.

You should only squat/deadlift to the depth your hips allow. 95% of the time this is dictated by the depth of your hip socket, NOT flexibility. You can't change this.

Most of the "proper technique" videos have flexion occurring at L4-S1.

I think this is why a lot of people don't work legs.
