    Looks decent, a bit lacking in hip drive. Do you have a mirror in front of you? You're looking into it, and losing a bit of your hip drive because of it. You might need to bring a sticky note to put on the mirror a foot or so off the floor, and look at that.

    Edit: I have a better idea. Turn around in the rack, and then look at a dot on the floor about 4 feet in front of you. You won't be tempted to look in the mirror then.

    Thanks. There is a mirror in front, but I don't look at it. I put the bar pad on the ground and look at that. But, I will bring it closer to my feet, even though I was intending it to be 4-5 feet away I think I have been putting it too far away.
