ReplyDeleteweights too heavy. drop 20 lbs and try again.
DL
get some coaching. terrible. weights not close enough to shins.
knees dropping. sliding out of the lift.
REALLY?
Steve,
ReplyDeleteI watched these about 10x. Pretty decent on both. First, you should post these on Strength Mill and get Rip's comments. He will be much more insight full.
Here is my $0.02
SQT
Depth: Looks very close to being deep enough. I can not tell if the hip crease dropped under the knee cap. It looks at least even.
Descent: Hips went back nicely, it looks like you flared your knees nicely.
Ascent: Where is the bar on your shoulders? You lead with the ass going up (good), but the bar moves forward of the COM and that causes the wobble on rep 4 and 5 (I do the same thing it is hard to train)
DL:
Start: looks good, shoulders forward of the bar slightly. I can not tell if the bar is centered over your foot because of the plate.
Ascent: It looks like your hips rise faster then the shoulders, this will cause the bar to move away from the shins, try pushing off with the feet, extending the knee, this will keep the angle between the hips and shoulders constant, then as the bar passes the knees extend at the hip.
All in all man, good job. As for anonymous...well, you can just load the bar with 135lbs and practice perfect technique, but technique does not bring about the physiological changes that lifting heavy weight did. Nothing I saw made me think...oh man, you are going to get hurt.

Steve, weights looks good. Form looks fine just needs a bit of practice. Try putting some tension in bar before you lift the weight up in the DL. I find if I setup and then go 90% to lift-off (tension it up) then go balls I don't shoot my ass up. I might help you maintain that back angle. For the squat try curling up your toes it makes it almost impossible to shift your weight forward onto the toes.
