  Having some issues posting to “Powerlifting”, so I’m going to try here. Just finished the first week of Beginner Acclimation (1A Week 1), posted top sets here: https://www.instagram.com/p/CdIp_qRLAU7/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link
  
  No squat vid unfortunately, because Instagram sucks. It can be seen here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/18SHZBYHYe1lxuCNOP5LznSgpWEFVHTup/view?usp=sharing

  Adrian,
  
  We had a tech issue and it is fixed now.
  
  Is you insta private? I can’t see the post.
  
  On the Google drive squats:
  If you can film from 45 degrees front or side that is a better angle for us.
  From what I can see, it looks pretty good, but it does look like you are looking down.
  We need you to look straight ahead and keep your head neutral.
  When the head is down and you are looking down it causes a dump and will not allow you to drive your back into the bar as hard as you should.
  
  You can see on the last rep you dump a little.
  Lifting the head up will help to correct this.

  Thanks Murph, sorry I’m only just now seeing this. Posting this week’s (Beginner Acclimation 1A Week 3) top sets here:
  
  Squat – https://www.instagram.com/tv/CdssIq3F-ND/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link . Feeling better by the week – will make sure to maintain a neutral spine and put my back into the bar more
  
  Bench – https://www.instagram.com/tv/Cdssmqjlx-7/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link Been focusing more on trying to get my bar path straight up and feeling it way way more in my upper back as a result. This is correct, right? I’ve been consistently benching by pushing the bar up and back towards my face, if that makes sense.
  
  Deadlift – https://www.instagram.com/tv/CdsscVdFzEA/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link Had a very good day for hook grip. These felt easy
  
  Floor press – https://www.instagram.com/tv/CdssVpYl8p7/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link This didn’t feel so great today, not sure why.
  
  Apologies for the angles – will make sure to correct them next time
