Vid below
Ive got really long arms, so i tend to use my back mainly when pulling
my ass is really high when i start, because i find it hard to have my arms fully extended if i have it lower - is it just a matter of trying to sit back more?
i dont think its because of an imbalance, my hamstrings are one of my stronger points, which is why i want to utilize them
(vid is 405-420ish - 182.5kg on the bar, but all plates are about .7-1kg heavier. Regardless, its about 55lbs short of my max)

Pretty good form but to use your legs more drop your butt down a little and lift that whole first half with your legs then bring your back up. So after you touch the bar to your chin in the beginning try going lower maybe that will help

thanks guys, i will definately try and focus on my setup more, i usually just grip and rip, and dont put any thought into it
but now im going heavier, for safety purposes, its not great to lift the majority of the weight with my back, and it probably limits what i can lift tooMy journal: http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=110608191
