    Deadlift and Front Squat Form Check

    Would anyone mind taking a look at the below videos? I've previously receive advice to brace my core and sit back into the lifts. After working to stretch my hip flexors and shoulders prior to the lifts I think they've improved but I am open to criticism if possible.

    I worry that my front squat might be too deep and that during deadlift my back might be rounding. Thank you for looking!

    Front Squat 100 x 5

    Front Squat 100 x 4

    Bar is to far forward in both lifts. Needs to be over mid foot in deadlift and close to resting on your neck in front squat.

    Thank you. I'll work on that. For front squat I try to rest it on my shoulders in front, so I'll have to work to get it further up.

    deadlift looks solid if you just bring the bar over midfoot at the start.

    Front squat definitely needs work on your set up, this should help -

    Your shoulders are too far back in the starting deadlift position. They need to be slightly in front of the bar:

    Thank you guys so much. That dead lift video addresses an issue I noticed when fatigued. I'll definitely keep an eye out. Going to need to incorporate watching that front squat video while stretching before sets to keep it fresh too.
