    Hi guys,

    Need critique please:

    Squat:
    Squat 2 - Streamable
    (I see the sticking point in a couple of reps - not sure what to do about that)

    Deadlift:
    DL 2 - Streamable
    (I can see that it looks a bit weird... like im setting up fine 'i hope' and then pulling in a weird way... this may be because my weights are small - or is it me?)

    Press:
    Press 1 - Streamable
    (Cant seem to find a good angle on the press - sorry)

    I recently posted a form check and i know im suppose to link it here, but im not sure how...

    Cheers,

    You have a few things to fix up on the squat, so I'll just comment on that set. Your stance is too narrow and it's making depth hard to hit. Bring each foot out by about 1.5" - 2". Your back is too upright, and you're raising the chest as you ascend. Look at the floor 4-5 feet in front of you and don't stop looking at it until it's time to rack the bar. Get your knees forward immediately, and reach back with your butt. Point your chest at the floor while you do this. Resist the urge to lift your chest as you ascend, and just drive your ass up. Some shoes would be helpful, as well.
