Hi guys!
Does it seem OK or am I way off?

Hey there. On the deadlift you're setting up too far away from the bar and you're also pulling it around your knees. Put the bar one inch from your shins or right over the knot in your laces. Squeeze your back tight and leg press the floor away.

The squat is more of a problem. You've actually got it in the high bar position and these reps are all high. Get the bar in the low bar position. Also review your videos as you're warming up and between sets to make sure you're getting proper depth. The community here is picky about that.

Cheers

Is it a problem to squat high bar?

[Mark Rippetoe]

Fine with me.

Thank you for the feedback Ripp, you mean the technique on both DL and Squat, or squatting high bar is fine?

I could of course switch to low bar, but I have always squatted this way.

Pleh, you can squat high bar if you just have to, but not squat high - high reps don't count.

If you want to squat high-bar, it's fine with me, especially since that's what you've always done.
