Am I slamming my knees into extension? (Deadlift)
Hi Rip and everyone,
A couple of hours after deadlifting yesterday, my right knee felt uncomfortable. The discomfort seems to be deep inside with the ligaments, especially the back of the knee. The same area hurts more when I kneel down. It is similar to what described in this post I believe: https://startingstrength.com/resourc...nded-knee.html
I have a video of the deadlift set. I'm really sorry I didn't film it from a high enough point. Can you please give me some advice?

My guess is that the bar move towards the toes progressively, my knees slam into extension hard, my back unlocked. I have been locking my knees at the same speed in the squat too. The knee tweak might have come from the accumulation of the slams. Is this a real problem in my technique? Any feedback I'd really appreciate. Thank you. :)
