    Definitely reset every rep, as you're doing, or you risk injury. If you do not reset every rep, you're just trying to bounce the weight each rep and don't care about your spine.

    It looks pretty good, actually. The rounding doesn't seem that bad to me. Your hips and the bar rise in sync. It appears you are bracing correctly. Do you work your abs/core at all? Are you focusing...

    Be sure to film yourself at least every once in a while so you can feel AND see what good form is, but you specifically said besides actually seeing yourself. What's helped me over the years is to...

    Looks pretty clean. Real clean. Also, though, looks like that is an easy weight for you. Might be more beneficial to record a heavier session.

    You are taking a lot of hip drive out of the movement. If you are driving through with your hips, your legs would straighten out.

    It seems like you're still putting too much work on your lower...

    I'm going to say no, butt wink isn't acceptable for most people. If your spine is moving, that likely means your core isn't protecting it.

    I have had the same issue, but it comes from trying to...

    I agree that you should keep it in a comfortable range, but you may want to investigate if it's a flexibility issue. I have pretty long arms at 5'6" and I thought for a long time that I could not get...

    Your core/back looked stable. Not sure if you've seen a professional already as they would probably be the best to consult with on how to proceed, but the reps looked solid.

    Unless you're specifically trying to target your triceps, there is no need to aim for 90 degrees between the bar and your elbow. Go for about 45 degrees. Make sure your elbow is directly under your...

    I would tend to agree with most in the thread. DB Rows is not going to be an exact replacement, but should work.

    However, I would think about why your lower back is hurting. Is it a form issue? Do...

    Maybe it's a factor of how much weight you're moving when doing dips as opposed to DB presses. Are you getting a good stretch in the bottom position when pressing?

    Dips and cable crossovers are...

    Form looks ok, but I would think you could get into a better position with a heavier weight. You can't really sit back with 135 if you weigh 215 :)

    Just focus on keeping your core stable and...

    I did this for a while to put more focus on my quads, but it definitely will not stop you from hitting your hams and glutes. Especially if you're a novice at this point. It's really not going to make...

    Can't remember what the video was I saw it on, but I guess it's more of a mental thing and it clicked when I heard it. It's basically thinking about "spreading the floor" during your squat. This may...

    Your squat is definitely high-bar. One tip that helped me was to think of the squat as trying to spread out instead of drop down. That may help with your knees caving in. On a similar note, you may...

    Would make perfect sense to do this and I have done so in the past, but Hessunit makes an excellent point about paying attention to how the complexes could affect your actual training. I think if...

    To be honest, if I don't feel a bit nauseous after my squats and such, I don't feel like I did enough. :)
  • Hip Pain only when knee extended and hip internally rotated

    I'm pretty sure I've described this correctly and it's sort of driving me crazy. For weeks now, I have noticed a slight pain in my right leg near my hip/at the top of my quad. Inner thigh. I was only...

    I had the same problem. Everything was looking good except my arms. I started training triceps and biceps about twice a week as part of a push-pull type routine and the added volume made a huge...
