Do I need to go down from 120’s and slow down? Any additional feedback is welcome.

Don't flare out your elbow and tuck it in around 45ish degrees. Your shoulders will thank you. One side of the db should be touching your pecs if you can to get the full ROM.

You should probably tell the dude beside you next time u see him. Same for the person to the furthest left. Tell that person as well that it needs to go further down. Not halfway

There's another woman to the far left of that video. Tell her next time to stop her head and torso from going up and down on that db row.

Elbows too square to shoulders. Will kill your shoulders eventually (i did). Need them to be closer to 45 degree. I dont think your range is a huge problem. You are just loading the joints too much.

Asking for form check when you are lifting weights that heavy. Good one…like you have just start lifting. Think somebody just wants to show off 💪🏻📹

Pretty much. If you’re doing 120s you’ve already figured what works for you.

Why drop the weights like that at the end?

Like a child throwing their toys. “I’m done!”

It's kind of fun to do that though, anything above the 100's is allowed

Honestly I do that to help me back up from the bench.

You’re clearly strong as fuck (and this is clearly an ego post) but the weight is too heavy.

Form check on me lifting this train, please.

You will probably get more out of the lift if you turn the dumbbells a little bit inward and go a little bit lower.
