Whoa, wait, why is your bench 1rm 100lbs after 2.5 months? Can we get a video of your bench press form? Something is seriously, seriously wrong there.

Your form is pretty well fine aside from your potentially dangerous unracking, but that's been fully discussed.

First of all, don't ever unrack the bar like that again. When you unrack, you need to squat it out like it's a normal rep. Risk for high injury with how you were unracking the bar.

Squats aren't that bad. The first rep was pretty good. Second and third reps had butt winks. Try to keep your lower back tight throughout the lift so you don't dip into your depth.

I don't really have a problem with your speed since it's at a lighter weight, but you always want to be in control. That being said, you might wanna slow down into the hole once you start going heavier.

tl;dr fix butt wink by keeping a tighter back when you're nearing depth.

Form is actually not bad. I noticed you were kinda rushing the reps, I understand if it was because of lower weight. Just keep in mind at higher weight to take your time and focus on form over speed.
