Deadlift form check

I’ll chime in as this is by far my favorite lift.

In terms of bar position, the bar should be over the middle of your feet (where you want your center of gravity), as you can see in the image below

the bar seems to be further forward. you want the bar traveling up along your shins, in fact you can google deadlift shins and see tons of memes regarding bloody shins from proper bar path.
also you seem to be 2 staging your lift, hips come up 1st and then your lower back kind of “good mornings” the bar up. that what you’re feeling when you say “breaking neutral spine”.
the lift should be 1 smooth fluid motion. kind of think to yourself, stand up, not reverse bow.

As simple as it might seem on a lift where you just grab a bar and stand up, your body mechanics actually dictate your form quite a bit. longer femurs, shorter arms, all play a big factor in how proper form for you will be.

YMMV but for me my deadlift starting ritual involves actually kind of rolling the bar back towards me, i use that semi momentum movement to dip my hips back and down, retract the scaps and stand up smoothly.

In terms of set up, since the bar isn’t on the floor, its technically a rack pull (which is fine). Theres lots of opinions one way or the other in regards to touch and go deadlifts, but i personally believe a DEADlift but start from a DEAD stop. I personally adhere to this bc i have shorter than normal arms and normal length legs. I need to reset into proper form before each pull. Like all things though YMMV.

Looks pretty solid DC, pumped you finally have access to a trap bar.

Feedback wise… perhaps a bit of rocking toe to heel especially on the last few reps. Hard to tell if those shoes are soft in the heel or not, they look a bit soft.. this could be why you aren’t fully rooted into your heels to maximize backside recruitment…

As it gets heavier you’ll want to start packing the neck

Chin Tuck

Solid, even with that gentle eccentric touch. Makes u stronger i reckon 😉
