**INSERT BACON TAGLINE** Member 3502, 1009 posts SQ 240, BP 157.5, DL 275672.5 kgs @ 110kgs UnEq | Check out my vid - just light pulls with 120kg and 140kg, I reckon my form looks better. Decided to try and ape the form used by Brian shaw to see if it suits me. Just wanting to see if anyone can see anything drastically wrong? https://www.instagram.com/p/BKl2X-oBYL2/?taken-by=rugby_lad | ||

 no longer the Swiss Deadlift record holder Member 3517, 3368 posts SQ 182.5, BP 122.5, DL 255560.0 kgs @ 90kgs UnEq | Nothing looks particularly wrong from that angle, but it seems like you could perform a more convincing lockout. | ||

I suppose it was an incorrect choice of words but it was watching him pull that made me consider bringing my stance out about wider. I'm only 6'3 so I'd hope I wouldn't need to go out as far as him! | ||

Getting fat is just as dumb as using PED's Member 3387, 2532 posts SQ 275, BP 200, DL 290765.0 kgs @ 114kgs UnEq | I think Brandon Lilly posted something about people trying to mimick Bryan Shaw's pulling style and get gave some interesting points. Namely his heigh, weight, waist etc. To put it simply he pulls like that because he is so big, pulling like that if you average Joe probably wont work. | ||

I'll certainly dig out his bit later on! In my defence, the back appears straighter/ doesn't move and the legs seem come into the lift more. I don't have the time, money or desire to invest in a coach (online or otherwise) so vids for self assessment, experimentation and asking for opinions is what I'm happy doing. It's all just a bit of fun! | ||

 Sugdens very own David Dimbleby Member 1403, 3716 posts SQ 220, BP 115, DL 260595.0 kgs @ 97kgs UnEq | Your back angle is very flat which I don't think is the most economical position to be in. Also as others have said your lockout is very soft - at these sorts of weighs you should be pounding the bar. Maybe bringing your heels in and keeping the toes pointed out more will help mobilise your glutes - this worked for me. But what do I know! | ||

 Member 2027, 125 posts SQ 175, BP 120, DL 250545.0 kgs @ 88kgs UnEq | Looks a solid style but maybe not optimum. Experimenting with dips aka andy B into the lift might help, I nicked them off Andy and they work for me. i had them prior to going to see andy but he looked at them and fine tuned them. When I went to see tom he moved my knees slightly further forward giving me a little more floor speed which has reaped rewards. | ||
