Thanks for this! I find there is a fine line between coaching how to pull the shoulder blades down (depression) and shoulder blade retraction. I see new weight lifters retract more often than depress but once they feel the difference it’s an easy fix.
My favourite, and to me the most simple and understandable cue for this is "Show the inside of your elbows to X" (for example the coach out infront of the client/object/spot on wall etc). Thank you for your cues. Whatever works works x
I’ve used my TUBOW to help confirm a vertical bar path, since it’s difficult to check while doing the lift. I place the TUBOW on my side of the bar, about an inch or two further out than my grip, touching the bar or maybe a millimeter away. As I lift, the bar just barely skims the TUBOW on the way up (or it should!).
Dear Steve, a point with the bending the bar cue: someone could make it at the wirst level, and it could hurt,;0). In this cue, I suggest to emphasize the movement to be accomplished at the shoulder level. TKS for the content
The dead lift as is the squat can be the cause of a serious injury just by making one single mistake. In my opinion these exercises should always be supervised by a expert and not explained on a video so that one can watch and try at home.
Keep these up. The graphics are helpful, production values are high, explanations are simple and quick.

I watched that first deadlift in the video, vomited, then realized they did that on purpose
I don't think it was 6 million
