Since I posted the squat Form check in my other new thread, I figured I should also get input on my recent deadlifts I was able to have filmed. I feel like my Deadlifts have been coming along nicely since I switched to pulling Sumo, but I also know I still have a lot of work to do to perfect my form. I figure my max right now pulling sumo is about 425 lbs, so for reference this is 2 reps at about 85% of my max. I have more videos of 315 I can post if those will help show my form when the weight moves easier/more explosively.
One thing I am worried about, similar to on my squat form check is the order I'm doing things. Are my hips rising too soon before my shoulders? Am I remaining as upright as I should be? One thing I noticed is that many people recommend that your shins are against the bar and completely vertical, where mine are slightly leaning over the bar it appears. Sometimes I wonder if I am pulling too much with my upper body and not pushing the floor apart and starting the movement with my legs enough.
Let me know what you think guys, and Thanks in advance for your input!
