Please Critique Deadlift Form

[Mike_Rojas]

I like doing deadlifts, but I think I do them wrong. It seems like I hunch over too much. Here is a picture:

Is that technique going to mess my back up? Any tips for improvement? It feels like I'm doing them right, but then I look at the pics and say "that's not right".

ps: notice the lovely home gym crammed in my garage?

It's really hard to tell in a still...video is easier, but I don't see anything wrong with it. 'Course I can't tell if you're pulling back either, since it's a still.

So what kind of dog do you have?

Must have seen the cat carrier.. I actually have 5 cats... lol


Maybe I'll videotape my DL's next time. Same camera angle will work?

Thanks for taking the time to reply, Spatts. You're the best, and a Deadlift master!

No...no.... "Mr. Vogelpohl, Sir" is the deadlift master!

I'm just opinionated.

as long as your lower back is locked and you have good core strenghth you'll be fine.
