    Default Deadlift form check

    Hi All -

    Two months into the program and frustrated by my progression on deadlifts. Set below is at 235lb (backed off when i got to 260lbs as it ended up becoming 5 singles for 2 consecutive workouts).

    YouTube

    Appreciate any critique/advice on obvious form issues that may be contributing to my challenges for this particular lift. For reference, most recent squat working sets at 225lb. I read a pair of articles on the site about artificially weak deadlifts, would like to see a greater gap between squat and DL, and a form check seemed like a prudent first step.

    If it matters - 5'9", 177lbs (started at 165lbs), 39yo.
