Is it possible to be going "too low" on squats?
I'm curious because I've heard conflicting opinions on this.

"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

If you are aiming on power, or a sports specific goal, then yes, you would need to activate the fast twitch fibers by... fast movements!
As a general rule, it is safe to go as low as you are comfortable without losing your arch, and without your knees going WAY past your toes (a little over is OK, when your flexibility improves this wont be a problem).
Meanwhile, you can increase on your flexibility by stretching.

Exactly. Due to the way the load is dispersed, squatting to at least parallel is actually better on the knees than half- or quarter-squats.Kerpal said:Squatting deep isn't bad for your knees, it's not squatting deep enough that's bad for your knees. And inability to keep arch doesn't justify not hitting full depth. You should go at least to the point that your hip joint is lower than the top of your knees.
And if you can't keep your lower back arched you're doing too much weight. Do not squat higher; instead do not lift so much weight.

As a general rule, go as low as you can without compromising form.
