    Hi, I started SS in October (was 6'3" 150lb up to 165 now), but I got injured in February (was weighing around 170-175lb) and am just starting back this week. I started back light at 115lb (I was up to around 185 in Feb). Can anyone give me some feedback on form? Are there any that I was getting right? I feel like my knees might be coming forward, but since I am tall and my legs are long, it makes it more difficult.

    Your back is a loose mess. Before you unrack: proud chest, big breath and squeeze your spinal erectors and abs extremely hard. Two steps back, STAY TIGHT and another big breath and squeeze as hard as you can. Also, toes out at 30 degrees. Yours are only 10-15.

    Once you get that sorted post another so we can check out your back angle.
