Doug i thought you were going to leave these at 135lbs until you got your form issues straightened out?
|
Honestly, I don't feel like I'm lifting anything at all at that weight..
185-200 is just where I'm starting to feel a bit of a load..
Maybe if my form was better it'd be more difficult, but..

and now you have new habit of looking straight down to the floor during the 2nd half of the movement.
|
I'm all over that, trust me..
No idea why I did that..
I think I was trying to see if I was setting the weight down approx. where it got lifted up from, ie. straight up and down..

the way i see it your biggest problem is still not enough bending of the knees on the way down and so your butt is stuck up in the air when the bar gets back to the floor
|
Yeah, I noticed that constant repositioning, too.. :(

the start position of your first rep was pretty good and that is where you should end up at the end of the 1st rep.

Really?
Hmm.. Ok, and hear I thought I was to straight-legged on that one..
I wanted to show me going progressively lower (knees more bent, not butt lower) on each one so I could get feedback on which was closer..

Still need to bend your knees and get your butt down man.
|
Even on those last 2?
Like I said, I did it both ways (or I thought I was), to show the legs more or less straight, and another in a crouched position..

You never really push your hips through at any point either.
|
By that do you mean that exaggerated thrusting forward of the hips at the very end?
Next DL I'm really going to go as low as I can, both on knees and butt, see if that's closer..
And I'll review
again the SS book, and the vids..
Thanks for the feedback!!
