    Not a lot to complain about on your squat. Good work.

    For deads, you are starting with the bar a little in front of the mid foot. Bring it back and raise your hips a little. Even with the extended setup at the beginning, you managed to get the bar forward and your hips a bit low.

    Also, strongly consider some lifting shoes.

    Yeah I'm going to get a nice pair around November or December. Here are a couple more form checks if you could let me know how they look please:

    Squats (I know you said mine looked fine above, but to me these looked a lot different from the usual squats I do):

    Power Cleans:

    Press (1.0):

    BTW, the extended set up for the deadlift was because I can't seem to find a comfortable way to do the over/under grip. Any thoughts on what could cause that? It just felt like the side where I use the under grip was just to close to my body. Thanks for your time.

    Your presses look pretty good. Keep adding weight.

    No YouTube channel for me. I am quite literally drowning in digital media. I have close to 6 TB of digital photos and that number is constantly growing. Do you realize what a pain in the ass is it to back up that much stuff? Very painful. I am badly backlogged on photo processing. If I added video to that mix, I think my head would explode. Wolf and Jordan are more fun to watch anyway.
