#Deadlift back rounding ?

Please cheats if my back is ok ? I feel like I’m rounding my shoulders to reach the bar. With more load it would be more challenging to avoid that I suppose.

this is a bit off as I set up too close to the bar here, but your movement when starting should be much more of a hinge setup.

#

you'll be "squatting" a bit, but the intent isnt to squat/press the bar up, but to wedge and move with your hips, hamstrings

#

to answer your second statement about upper back/shoulders rounding a bit

#

didnt really see anything problematic

#

my upper back rounds a bit, but it isnt leading the movement

Thanks for all the great feedback. Did my best to adjust it: what do you think now ?

#

It feels a bit like a RDL from the floor

You look like your using your back to much,
When deadlifting your almost wanting to kinda squat while pulling it up if that makes sincd
