for long pants guy, you lock your knee joint too early, your knee joint and your hip joint should be locked at the same time, if you lock your knee too early, its almost as if you are doing stiff leg deadlift.

take an a4 paper and fold it equally 3 parts, it shall looks like Z shape if look from the side, imagine the top part is your upper body, middle part is your thigh, lower part is your calve. now hold it vertically, pinch the top part and bottom part and pull it upwards, you will realize both the folded part( the joints) both locked at the same time. thats how your deadlift joint lock should be.you can see short pants guy for referrence his lock out time for both joint is correct

short pants guy dont hyper extend your lower back (thrusting too much) or you will develop lower back pain. just keep it straight.

So I'll need to pull the bar until it reaches my knee level then only I straighten it right?

no, you move both your upper and lower joint together, and lock them together at the same time. hove you done the a4 paper demo that i have told you?

Yeah I've done that demo

so you do realize when you pull it up, all the 3 parts of the paper move together, and lock together, right?

Yes it does, so now what can I do to fix that? I think my shoulder blades is not over the bar also, and maybe my hip was too high?

Been missing out a lot it seems. :s
Yea I know you are friendly (seen your FB posts via mutual friends) some are hilarious too.

this time I need a form check myself

170kg 6 reps
goal is to hit PR 195kg 1 rep



I think I need to "sit" more

darklight got teach pipu????? where can join u sifu

i seen the video of form check. if i were to add few lbs to my max, what do i need to be careful of or correct? i think need to find someone to film me

IMO, u need to reset every rep. Not do touch n go if it is near max.

you can study jim wendler 531 or johnny candito 6 weeks strength program, undertand the concept behind periodization .

2 reps to last, it become a romanian deadlift. Static hips with only back as moving bodypart.

yeah, I need to sit down more and engage more hams movement there

Yup. And any particular reason for you to roll the barbell?

This man perfected the art of rolling the barbell.

im on layne norton phat program, i did record my gain. muscle size grow bit by bit. and i did add to bench, deadlift, squats etc which is also bit by bit. anyway my point is u asked me to study, so is it u wan me to understand something on jim wendler/jonnie candito programs and apply it to phat? or i change it to jim n jonnie program altogether lol im a bit confused

just mimicking what the best is doing

rolling in also makes the strap tighter.

if you are on phat and is seeing gainz, that continue doing it.
dont mix match a designed program, if you stall on phat than give wendler/candito program a try.

got it thanks

Im on phat too. And wow you are able to handle that much workload for a beginner. Keep lifting yo and may Swolly Father bless you with abundance of gainz.

Wheymen.
