Your entire foot (heel, the ball of your foot, and outer edge) should stay locked into the ground. Suction cup your feet to the ground by spreading your toes as wide as you can, then grasping the floor with your entire foot. You can use a conventional or sumo stance. Set your feet shoulder-width or closer, to where the bar is directly over your mid-foot, and turn them out slightly (10-30 degrees). If you lose tightness, then you lose strength.
