    Does this look ok? Nothing hurts so I think I'm in the ballpark. I think I could do a little better dragging the bar up my shins. A couple reps it loses contact. I can fix that.

    What about my back angle? It's basically horizontal. I'm 6'7" so I'm really tall. Is this just my anthropometry or am I doing something wrong?

    Thanks

    I can't tell from this angle if your low back is in good extension, but it doesn't look like it. The rest of the pull is pretty good.

    Here's from the side. The pull starts at 0:45
    Yeah I don't think I'm getting good lumbar extension. I'll try to shove my belly between my thighs more and see if I can't get more of that hump out.

    It may just be it is what it is. I don't know if I can get my hands down to the bar with my back extended or fully extend my back while gripping the bar without dropping my hips. I'll work on it. I appreciate the feedback.

    Hard to tell from here. Your lordotic curve doesn't increase much at the top of the pull, and you may just have a fairly straight lordosis. It happens. But you are on your toes too much when you start the pull. And please be quiet -- we know the setup.

    My greatest fear is that you will accuse me of not having read the book.
