 Member 711, 150 posts SQ 142.5, BP 102.5, DL 208453.0 kgs @ 60kgs UnEq | Good progress mate, I would definitely keep plugging away as you are and the strength will come. In relation to your deadlift - my numbers and their ratios were very similar to yours, and I found that switching to sumo deadlift really helped me increase my leg drive when I went back to pulling conventional. I went from 170kg up to 190kg fairly quickly this way (after stalling at 170 for a bit). In relation to your technique - it again looks very similar. The things that have helped me are getting tighter at the start (Try to pull yourself down to the bar or try paused deadlifts), and working on hip drive (Kettlebell swings helped me learn this bit). | ||
