You see what I gotta put up with every session?Obvious suspect is the music [emoji12][emoji1][emoji1]
Good call wingman.. I have been using Rippetoe's setup cue of bar halfway across foot, lower the hips until the shin touches the bar. Didn't think about the back angle until the bar passes the knee thingy.You start the movement with your ass way too high in the air, begin much lower.
The angle of your back should remain the same from when bar is on ground til when bar passes knees or so.
I see no video

Repped!
I was referring to it indirectly by saying that when I use Rippetoe's setup method, my ass ends up being way too high (coz I would only lower by hips until my shins touches the bar). I haven't scraped my shins for months now that I come to think of it..You missed the 1st sentence?
It's a shoulder width grip with a slightly narrower stance. So the hands are just on the edges of the knurling and my feet inside of it. The inner forearms brush up against the outside of my shins during the lift.Can't clearly see your stance and grip, but:
Most importantly, your shoulders are way too far in front of the bar. Your arms should be hanging straight, not angled back like that. The weight will want to swing forward when it clears the floor, and if it does that enough you will screw up your back.
Your back is not flat.
Your shirt is a poncey orange.
Fantastico, I'll fix up that starting position. That should help in getting the bar off the floor, where my sticking point is. I've been applying power progressively rather than explosively so I'll grip and rip next time as well.To fix this, drop your hips a little so that you sit down and back. That will bring your shoulders over the bar. Then the bar has a clear path to go straight up, and not tend to swing out away from your body. Even if your hips pop up as you take the slack out of the bar (but you can consciously stop that) at least you start your lift in a powerful position.
Lift for speed. Think "fast". You are kinda friggin around there.
When you drop your hips a bit your back will flatten as well, but main thing is to get your shoulders over the bar.
Ditch the orange shirt.

Yea I remembered that canned tuna, and correct as I have been consciously conserving energy for the joker sets. Got to make my work sets the priority.Jung I was confused by a training post I saw a couple of months ago, you had completed the spread of work sets and then gone on to perform multiple sets of heavier weight with higher reps...
Indicating you aren't pushing the proper work sets hard enough.
I could definitely have misinterpreted what I read though, those were my thoughts at the time
Thanks for the pointers, what I might actually do is do some power cleans before my deadlifts. I think that will prep my CNS for more explosiveness. Then I'll put the bumper plates on and start dumping!Focus on bar speed off the ground
Reason being simple physics. The momentum achieved makes the rest of the movement easier
-Currently you are relying largely on muscling the weight, and little on explosiveness
Stop training slow negatives
Currently you are allocating energy into getting better at lowering the weight slowly
How about putting that extra energy into getting better at lifting the weight?
Make sure you are pushing your work sets/programming
As mentioned in previous post.
The body can handle it
Amen.
It may not look like it, but a deadlift is a speed lift. Think of an olympic snatch. Its all about speed and balance. Same for the deadlift. From your warmups on, always perform the lift with the thought of "FAST!!!" in your mind. The faster you break off the floor, the easier the rest will be.
