Am I going low enough on GM's? Video ..

[sk*]

Here's the video:
*****

Two things I am not sure about:

1) Am I going low enough?
2) Am I bending my knees right?

Anything else that I might be doing wrong?

Thanks!

I really can't see your body enough to make a perfect judgement...but I would say that you have too much leg bend and your back is not arched enough. Try taking your feet out wider too...

I never do those but from what I've seen and read you shouldn't bend your legs much if at all. It's mainly a pivot point at the hips and yes keep your back perfectly straight or even a bit arched.

back can be arched or rounded, legs can be straight or bent

Thanks man.

Any suggestions on which form I should use (or maybe a combination) if my main goal is to strainghten my back for deadlifts?
