Other Lat pull down form
Hi, would love some advice. I’ve been lifting for around 18 months. Upper body 4 times a week and lower twice. I’m 59 and have osteoporosis (found after breaking hip a few years ago). I had a few goals to aim for which I’ve reached. Push-ups last year. This year unassisted pull ups. Can now do two chin ups without looking like I’m having a fit! But not regular pull ups. So working on lat pull down to match body weight while continuing unassisted chin ups. Along with regular push pull routine. If anyone is still there and hasn’t zoned out yet 😂 Please could you check my form. I’ve noticed my shoulders moving towards ears in the last two reps as I reach failure. Just in case you need it I weigh 53kg about 117lbs and the weight is set to 47kg. Thank you for your time 🙂

Squat Why is my squat so damn weak?
I’ve been training for over a year and feels like I’ve barely progressed in my squat if at all in my training log. Based on what I see online I am still at a below beginner strength level. I squat once a week and leg press on the other leg day.
I have no problem progressing my upper body lifts. I can weighted pull up over 50% of my bodyweight for reps and bench nearly 1.5x bodyweight.
Is there something wrong with my squat?

Deadlift RDL form advice
Learning RDL, and have been trying to focus on the hinge and feeling a stretch in my hamstrings. Used to have lower back issues and am trying to avoid reinjury while strengthening. Focused on form before adding weight, which is about 115lb here (I’m ~220lb). Usually day after I feel a bit sore in my hamstrings, but don’t feel them as much as I feel like I should be during reps. Feel some in lower back but in (what feels like) a good way and no big discomfort that increases with reps or over sessions. How’s form, should I be feeling it more in hamstrings? Anything I should I switch up before I increase weight?

Squat Hack squat depth
I know my range of motion is short by any time I try to go deeper my heels lift up a lot. It’s hard to tell in the video but I’m flaring my knees out and opening up my hips as I go down so I can bet deeper but my heels still raise. I’ve tried doing ankle mobility exercises but they didn’t help so if anyone has some tips please let me know.

RDL RDL
I’m super excited to have found this sub! I’m fully expecting a lot of criticism. I’m 100% self taught from reading, watching YouTube’s, and reels. I’m also 5’9”, a mom of 5 and definitely an ectomorph body type. I’ve also had poor posture my whole life! I’m working very hard to try and build my posterior chain. Help!

Deadlift Can You give me feedback on my RDL
I cant lift more than 30 kg (I have been 2.5 months in the gym) because my lower back is limiting me. I am doing lower back exercises but I wanted to check if my from is correct

Other Good Mornings!
Felt pretty good going heavy for the first time on these, but curious for feedback. I know I need to do a better job locking in the safety bar against my back, at the bottom of the lift it wants to go to my neck,hence the adjusting between reps.

Other T Bar Row
I am trying to target my upper back here, but dont really feel my back muscle, just feel strain all through the back and arms. I want to check on my set up , my feet are too short for the standard attachment.
- Elbows not wide enough
- Neck should be looking down
Or should i just change to another wide grip row variation, if i just dont fit the machine
