Overall, I do notice I’m getting better at the deadlift. Now I usually feel my lower back a lot less on heavier loads like 135 compared to lighter loads like 115 before. However, today when I did my first set(at 135) and my last set(at 140) I felt significant lower back pain. My second set of deadlifts was good and I didn’t really feel my lower back besides for clear stabilization. It quickly dissipated over the time of my workout but it’s still worrying and I don’t want that to happen again since I’m gonna be progressively overloading from this point forward. Any tips to prevent it based on this video of 140? I tried locking out today since last week I noticed the top of the rep would fall just short of lockout, is it possible I used my lower back to lock out instead of my glutes?

First time using 135 lb for deadlift (first 2 sets were 125 lb, this set is 135 lb). Does my form still need improvement? I don’t feel my lower back that much during the deadlift, but it was very fatigued by the time I got to goblet squats (first set of goblet squats particularly) so I’m wondering if it’s my form that’s fatiguing my lower back that much or if it’s fine since lower back activation IS normal for the deadlift.
Plus, I do notice I’m not fully straight (likely due to me not squeezing my glutes at the top) so does that worsen my form?

Did 135 lb today for my final working set (125 lb for first two). First time going this heavy on my sets, and I didn’t really feel my lower back that much during the lift. However I’m unsure if my form is still good and (most importantly) safe since my lower back feels pretty fatigued during goblet squats. Any feedback to make my deadlift form better?

The depth’s there, I’m just wondering as a beginner if there’s anything else (like the hip seeming to rise before the shoulders) that would red-light this.

I’m wondering if there’s anything I need to change on the cable lateral raise. This is a fairly new exercise to me, as I’m doing 2.5 lb for each arm (literally the lowest weight the cables go) so I want to make sure I’m doing it right so I progress to 5 lb properly. I was able to do 3X12 each arm for the cable lateral raise, but I don’t want to increase yet until I know my reps are good. This is the second set for my right arm, which seems to be the weakest arm for C.L.R, so if there’s anything that needs to be fixed based on this video, I’ll make sure to stay at 2.5 lb until all my reps are solid.
