You have excessive arch in your back, how can you not feel your back rounding at the bottom of the movement? Just go as deep as you can without rounding it, you should be able to feel this.

wow, I've heard of this but never seen it.
Your back is hyperextended when you begin the motion, and when you hit the very bottom of the hole your back is nice and straight (even though it's been pulled way under by your hamstring tension). The over-arching of your back is bad, don't do it. You need to flex your abs, too
Focus on trying to start with your back in about the same position as it is in when you are in the hole, and keeping it that way throughout the movement.Journal: http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=153427731&page=1

All the exaggerations in his form are because he's using light weight in the video. Your lower will naturally round less as the weight gets higher.

here's my heaviest set yet bud:
Didn't ask for my mate to spot or anything btw, had no idea he was gonna do that. He didn't assist in any way.
I know I'm turning this into a good morning and going lightening fast, but it's the butt wink we're trying to fix in this thread.
Thanks for the help so far everyone☆☆☆υк ¢яєω☆☆☆

You look a little better under load but you loose your core from the start of the lift. This can be fixed with better sequencing.
It's hard to say but for a few reps you drive and raise with your hips and then when you tire you compenstate the lift with rising your chest.BAppSc(Hons) - Bachelor of Applied Science (Exercise and Nutrition Sciences)
