    Apologies for the neck bend.

    Trying my best so keep at 100% neutral spine (particularly lumbar).
    Only 275lbs here but i feel any more i will have bend.

    My squat is 335x5 for a working set if that help identify weakness.
    A friend said the bar is to close to shins and i need to work ankle mobility.

    Did you even bother watching the video after uploading?

    It's hard to tell much from your video. It doesn't look like you are locking out at the top. It likes like you may have several problems but I can't be sure what they are because of the angle of the video.

    1) friend sounds wrong
    2) can't see your ankles, but mobility issues are doubtful
    3) can't see bar position
    4) follow setup procedures
    (you're not now)
    5) how we're you able to pull perpendicular to the wall like that?

    Cheers for the reply.
    As far as i know im following Rips guide.
    1)Midfoot
    2)Grab bar
    3)Shin on bar
    4)Lats in pocket/chest up
    5)Leg Press then Hips through.

    Lockouts a bit average but im more worried about lumbar round when i go heavier.

    You're pushing the bar forward with your shins. It's not over mid foot. You're dropping your hips. You're not bending over and grabbing the bar with straight legs. You're failing with the video recording technology as well.

    Don't push the bar forward with your shins.Keep it over mid foot. Don't drop your hips. Make sure you're bending over and grabbing the bar with straight legs. You can do better with the video recording technology as well.

    Thanks, blugold!
