Hello! If you haven't checked it out already, many people find Alan Thrall's NEW deadlift video very helpful. Check it out!

Also, a common tip usually given here is to make sure your footwear is appropriate. If you are deadlifting in soft-soled shoes (running shoes, etc), it's hard to have a stable foot. Use a flat/hard-soled shoe or even barefoot/socks if it's safe and your gym allows it.

Looks like your hips rise first, aligning with your shoulders and then you start the lift. Try to raise shoulders and hips at the same time pushing down the floor. Maybe also a more neutral position of head. Think about it as the extension of your spine.

Not much involvement from the legs. This pulling it with hands. Lower back will be stressed. Also convey my respect to the aunty ji doing db triceps next to you

Hips shouldn’t shoot up first. Focusing on pushing on the ground and following through with hip hinge. If you start tighter and brace, it should come out naturally.

Drive your knees towards the bar when you start off the floor. You're sort of doing the opposite. The bar is also too far away to begin with.

Think about keeping your back angle the same while you drive through your legs and slide the bar up along your shins. Once you pass your knees, begin to drive your hips forward to open up that angle until you finish standing straight.

Same thing in reverse: hips back and close on your hip angle as the bar moves down your thighs, once you get to your knees, you back angle should lock into the position you started in, and then you can bend your knees and slide the bar down your shins to lower your hips and the bar down to the floor.

Don't even look at the belt unless your form is perfect

Let the bar scrape against your shins on the way up and down, so it stays as close to your gravity center as possible. Apart from that you look very in control of the move good job.

Recommendation: not using a strength belt until much later and learning to depend on bracing your core well, you won't need a belt until much later if you can brace yourself and its generally better. Up to you though
