| | | Deadlift Form Check Last form check was a little dark. I brought a little extra light in to get a better video.
My hips felt low to me and I was trying to get them lower from previous advice. It looks like I just ended up bringing them back up before I started anyway though. Watching the video they look a lot higher than they felt.
So, have at it. Let me know what I can do better to improve my form.
My thoughts are that I probably still need to get my hips lower and then not pull them up at the start. I am going to work on that. Deadlift Form Check video |

| | Sorry, hehe, I really never even thought about the fact that I was watching it sideways. I rotated it and re-uploaded. It looks fine on my PC, but uploading it to vidilife stretched it out, distoring the picture. I will send you the video Derwyddon. Here is a link. Deadlift Form Check-2 video

| | | Hips to high. I'd like to see a better lockout. And the weight you're using isn't heavy enough to make a really good analysis. I'm not saying that your deadlift is weak; what I'm saying is when you're repping a weight then you'll tend to have much better form than if you pulled a heavier weight. Form changes when intensity increases.
So if your hips are too high and your lockout is a bit off, then you might have much bigger form issues when you start pulling heavier. |

you look strong to me. and I have to agree with Evo. I can not lift that much weight that easily, but what I do lift, I am WORKING at it. Step it up some big boy!

| | | Thanks Phate, Evolution & Flyinfree.
Evolution, for a better lockout, should I be pulling my shoulders back more at the top, or holding it longer at the top? Thanks for the feedback!
Flyinfree, I am 6'5".
Derwyddon gave me several great pointers as well. Thanks Derwyddon! |  | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | | | Display Modes | Rate This Thread | Linear Mode | |
