Looks like high bar with low bar form.
You break at the knees late and sit really far back with your hips. You'd move more weight and feel more comfortable with low bar I think. Alternatively you could allow some forward knee travel and distribute the weight move evenly among your muscles. I think you're gonna end up leaning more and more forward the stronger you get because your quads won't catch up.

Squeeze your elbows into your back to reduce flare. Also breathe and brace more. If you learn how to brace you won't collapse as much.

Thanks for the advice, i have trouble holding the bar for low bar because of poor elbow and shoulder mobility from an old injury. Im going to try lightweight squats on my non squat days to try and get better knee mobility.

Maybe this is also why m ass wont stop growing but my quads grow really slowly?

Doggo for thanks

If you keep your back tight you can put your hands out farther to help with elbows. I basically touch the plates. Just keep that upper back tight as shit.

>>42563838

3rd rep was best

>>42563838
sick half rep squatmorning faggot

another victim of rippletits on his way to snap city

Youre sitting back instead of sitting down youre not gonig to build your quads youre just gonna build glutes and put some strain on your lowerback

tldr: terrible

>>42564538
>doesn't even know what form is or why its important

>>42564548

I can't help but think my back is arching too much when I DL.

>>42563838
>>42563938
It looks more like you're going down with some hyper-extension and then your back straightens out when you start to come back up.

Are you consciously worried about visiting snap city or something?

>>42564531
> hurr durr.

>>42564570
No this is real advice >>42563938

>>42564765

See how your tricep isn't fully extended again until you reach the top? You're possibly putting strain on your bicep tendon.

>>42564864
I flex my lats and traps pretty hard to try amd keep my elbows in and my bacl straight maybe that makes me hyperextend
Also anyone have any good videos for properly bracing? Im only finding memes

>>42564765
You look pretty tall maybe your leverages are just fucked so it feels like youre arching a lot. The form looks pretty good to me as a dyel though

>>42564765
Troll.

Nobody deadlifts with hex plates.

Have you considered using your back less?

Get your set up right, it's fucked from the beginning.

>>42564765
Looks like my DL form. How's your squat/leg strength in general? Looks like (you/we) pull predominantly with our backs, as seen by the fact your hips are level with your shoulders.

>>42564958
Your traps and lats aren't involved in back extension. You're doing it unconsciously. You'll mash your discs eventually, like if you hyperextend on The Press.

Bracing is done by pushing against your closed glottis, a.k.a the valsalva.

Done right you'll see purpura around your eyes quite often after a heavy set.

Stop deadlifting like shit

>>42565028
If you follow the proper setup cues then you can still end up with form like that depending on your proportions. By which I mean: stance shoulder width, move heels in, shins ~1 inch from bar, take grip, lower shins to bar, pull up chest. This puts the bar over midfoot, and shoulders either at or slightly forward of the bar. This is correct setup. And when I do this, my back ends up damn near paralell to the ground. I literally cannot get leg drive unless I break the form cues and decide to drop my hips.

Thanks that's something I'll look into.

>>42564959
My gym literally doesn't have round plates because of "health and safety". I brought this up at the student union once and they said they pose a risk because they could "roll into people".

>>42564968
I have decent leg strength despite looking like I skip leg day but I can't go ass to grass.

>>42564959
Those aren't hex plates dumbfuck

>>42564959
theyre dodeca plates pleb

>Full length pants

Other than that, pretty solid.

chill out with the dive bombing, nice controlled descent you aren't powerlifting going after a bounce out of the hole my dude

>>42563838
there is absolutely no reason for you to be sitting back, just break at your knees and go straight down(in a controlled manner of course)

dont worry about your knees going past your toes, thats a meme

>>42568296
what dive bombing are you talking about. hes clearly nowhere near his max. it doesnt have to be a slow ass descent

>>42563838
You need to break at the hips and knees simultaneously, in the webm you're starting by breaking at the hips and sitting back. Everything else looks pretty good.

>>42564765
The bar is supposed to be in contact with your legs the entirety of the lift, the reason you feel like you're using too much back is because you're letting the barbell drift too far forward. Can't tell from this angle but it looks almost for sure like the barbell is not over mid foot when starting. Watch this: https://youtu.be/wYREQkVtvEc

>>42565175
Not hitting depth, the top of your kneecap needs to be above the fold in your hip at the bottom of your squat as an absolute minimum, also see same advice as >>42563838.

>heels not on the ground

>>42568873
nice one, anthony

Scrape your legs with the barbell, literally. Looks like you're holding it an inch in front of your legs.

Honestly it looks fine, you might be more comfortable with more forward knee travel if you want to squat more upright.
