Good form to bad form....
In my deadlifts today i taped them to see how my form is, and i noticed my first 2 sets i have good form, back is straight untill maybe the last rep. Then in my last 2 sets where i maxed out, 1 about 90% of my 1 rep and the other my 1 rep max, my back gets rounded. I know i dont pay much attention when i go heavy cause i just want to get the weight up, do you guys think i should lighten the weight to get used to always having my back straight even when it gets heavy? or will my form eventually come on its on when i get more used to deadlifting all the time?

sad to say but when you go heavy form tends to get a lil out of hand sometimes, as long as its not terribly horrible i wouldnt worry about it, i mean its always a good thing to have great form but if you dont i wouldnt stress too badly over it

its not THAT bad unless you look like a ****ing humpback whale, like where its obviously too dangerous. Having 100% form will have you lifting 135 all day

Yes, if you guys remember my 7 singles with 407, I could have pushed for 12 total reps but I began rounding. I cant risk injury or excessive soreness so I terminated the set.
This is why heavy deads should be done rarely. Rack deadlifts and stiff legged varitaions can do a better job without the injury potential.
Porvided yoiu stiff leg with a tight back, some people seem incapable of arching their back.
