This evening's workout: Meh.

I was trying to work on my stance (head up, back arched, ass down) with middling success; the 2x5's I used more of a sumo stance with a mixed grip, and could definitely feel more glute activation, so I'll probably try and keep that variety going. I definitely feel like I'm doing too much of the pull with my low/mid back; the last set, I made a conscious effort to engage my upper back.

On the upside, because it was a torrential downpour, the garage was only in the mid to upper 80's, which, while not exactly uber-comfy, isn't instant sauna conditions.

Take video and post if you would like any critique or observation on DL form!

As I was telling someone else, my thoughts on my form are as above - immediate soreness is in the upper lumbar/lower thoracic region, but is gone with 2 advil and a good night's sleep) and lacking a real camera (it would be awful cell-phone footage in all likelihood), I'm not sure the layout of my garage (not very wide, with the oly bar transverse to it) lends itself to a good angle on things, but I'll see what I can manage.
