    Hi coaches, thanks for your time.

    31M, 6'2
    10th week of SSLP
    Starting (Current)
    Weight: 205 (215)
    Deadlift: 225x5 (345x5)

    I missed deadlift last week (#345x4) for the first time, but have otherwise moved up #10 each session. Here's my most recent set of deadlift (#345x5) would be grateful for your thoughts.

    Apologies for the messy basement with bad lighting.

    Narrow your stance by an inch or two. This will help to keep your knees from coming in. Both you and the bar are slightly forward. Roll the bar back and rock back off your toes. Don't drop your butt when you do this, however. Getting back a little will help to keep the bar from swinging away from you. Arch your back harder and drag the bar up the legs. Keeping the bar on the legs the whole way will help keep you in better balance.
