Not that I've encountered. Can you properly rack the bar? You may just be getting behind the bar by the time it gets to the jump position. Post a...

Oof. Have fun with that. Does your coach not like you? Give us the first or second set.

Hey shump Two reasons your back is rounding. 1) you're blending Step 4™ and Step 5™ and not really getting your back set before you pull. 2) you're...

80-85% of your 5RM. Something that's challenging enough for us to see what you're talking about, but not a limit set where you end up talking to...

Any video?

You could bring the stance in a little and it'll help you to get your knees out and keep them there. That, and you need to keep the upper back tight...

We would like you to use as narrow a grip as possible while keeping the wrists relatively neutral. But you can get the narrower AFTER getting it in...

Very little. You need to lift the chest up before each rep to set the upper back. You only need to lean over enough to send the hips back and keep...

If you have a previous form check, please make sure to link it in the new one so we can reference it. Your stance looks ok here. You could move it...

Are you squatting with thumbs around the bar because of the upper back problem? The only real issue I see here is keeping the knees pinned out in...

Looks to me like the knees are collapsing inward. Next time you post a set, shoot something from directly behind. I'd like to check your stance...

We can tell most everything we need to from the angle requested, but this angle leaves some things out. Like stance width and bar position and grip....

Hey Soule It's your inner Chase Lindley. Not incorrect. Watch your heels through the set though. It's subtle, but that's why Hayden mentioned...

Stance looks wide from this angle. But the bar also looks like it could be too high on your back. Shoot a set from behind, higher if you can, and...

I'd just do deadlifts tomorrow so you can film and get some feedback that will help with the power clean. Up to you though.

Lots to fix here. Grip needs to be wider, you need to actually set your back and keep the bar on your legs off the floor to start. You're more rowing...

Sounds like you're over-thinking this a little. Here's the problem you have to solve with your body: stay balanced on midfoot through the entire ROM...

Lean over sooner and cut your depth off about 3-4 inches. A little more control on the descent would help get depth consistent rather than...

Head over to the Technique forum, read the sticky for the rules, and post a video so we can see what's going on.

To stef's point, we haven't described the deadlift as a hip hinge. Hip extension is the predominant joint action, but knee extension has to occur...

That's how I tend to describe the break off the floor. "Peel it off the floor", "Squeeze it off the floor". If you try to gorilla the bar off the...

It's because you're pulling the bar around your knees. You're yanking it off the ground by opening up the back angle rather than extending the knees...
