    Deadlift form check.


    My form's improved quite a lot but, there's still some improvement I think that could be done. Any suggestions?

    Don't round your back at all in the exercise, even if you're coming down for the end of the final rep. Back looked a bit round at the start of your rep also a bit.

    Dont yank on the bar like that 😳 You could seriously do some damage to yourself, pull slowly to get the slack out of the bar, then power the weight up.

    I'd never heard of that. I'll take note tho. From looking at the form I think I'm pulling the weight up instead of back thus causing my back position to change the way it does. Any tips for that?

    Actually it appears that the reason that's, is because, I am dropping my hips from what I am reading.. But when I don't drop my hips it looks like I've a rounded back..?

    Flexibility then. Your bum probably tilts quite early when you squat deep as well.

    To perform exercises with good form - you need good flexibility.

    I am working on flexibility naturally however it's taking a while to improve (I've been doing agile 8 for about a month now per example). Aside from the agile 8 what should I take up to improve flexibility?

    the lower part of the deadlift should feel like a leggpress.
    it's a push ,and a pull at the same time.

    Tense your glutes at the bottem of the movement , and drive the hips true.

    Like advised above pull yourself into position using the weight of the barbel.
    (Get yourself thight , and don't yank the bar)
    Almost sit back a little till the point you will fall, and let your bodyweight lift the bar a little.
    then lift with the abs pushed out.

    Just like muscle growth - just keep at it and you'll improve.
