Could it be that I’m starting too close to the bar and as a result relying more on my back and posterior chain? Tbh my quads are pretty oversized and if anything I’m extremely quad dominant
No. You are supposed to be close to the bar.

Last I checked this was a “Powerlifting” forum. The clean pull has absolutely NO relevance to powerlifting. Your photo is taken at a moment of extension way beyond a heavy deadlift and besides being off base is disingenuous and misleading. Stop licking OL nuts and stick to discussing powerlifting, …

Why don’t you show a clip of him deadlifting and let’s see what he looks like just as he starts to pull?
Keep trying
Once you know how to keep your back straight, you can really use the hamstrings. From there, you can slump your shoulders. Like you said, all good conventional pullers do it.
I assure you, Konstantinov knows how to get his back tight. Then he chooses to drop his shoulders. He understands what is happening.
Young brah doesn’t know how to keep his back flat. He is not choosing to round. He is rounding because his back is rounded! The give away is the stiff legged deadlift. Nobody does stiff leg deads with a round back. Flat back produces more tension in the hamstrings.
The entire chain must be strong. There can be no weak links.
Until you’ve experienced issues with the scaps, you’re just repeating something you read. Get some experience! Put some weights in your library!

Go retire to your safe space now, snowflake.

I don’t think your back actually rounds during the pull itself, at least for the 225lb pull. It’s more that your lower back seems pretty rounded when you start the pull, or perhaps it’s better to say that the angle between your lower back and the floor looks way too close to parallel.
Tbh, I’m not entirely sure how to word this. Your back just looks flat. I guess the easiest way to just look at elite powerlifters deadlifting on Youtube and compare your back position to theirs.
Andy Bolton is a good example.
Another thing you can try is rolling the bar to your shins and more or less sitting into the deadlift by hinging while removing the slack from the bar. Your hip position should greatly increase.
You may want to look into seeing how good your hinge is too, while you’re at it.
It’s not about the lifters posted; it’s how you seem to talk down to everyone. I’m hoping that your technique and knowledge base are impeccable. Your tone denotes something along those lines.

This fuckin’ guy. Internet shit-talkers are the best, aren’t they? When someone is this much of a gaping asshole and doesn’t have any idea (which is pretty evident by his ongoing belief that he’s been in the right all along throughout the absurd quarrel with another poster that spread into a dozen different threads) there’s about a 2 percent chance they’ll realize it when someone points it out to them. The more likely outcome is that now he will lash out at you, too, with a misguided redirect such as asking for a deadlift video of yourself instead.
Have fun with all that.

It’s okay I don’t mind playing along and getting critiqued. Along with some good info and interaction with good people, this site is a source of entertainment.
Plus he replies like a 60 year old man with all his email filler. I love it

Your “ball breaking” is calling names and making unclear points.
Ed Coan, pulling conventional, flat back. Start at about 1:30 If you’re impatient.

We’re getting stuck on the deadlift. This isn’t about Deadlifting, it’s about young dudes back. He couldn’t pull with a flat back if he tried. He’s been trying for months, and can’t keep his back flat!
I put the pictures in to show the difference between round and flat. Not to suggest how to deadlift. Then I added Shaw for fun. If dude physically can’t get his back straight, that will be an issue in any move he does that involves the back.
Remember conjugate principles. You fix faulty movements with small special exercises. If you’re rounding excessively in the big move use small exercises to build muscles that counter rounding.
To fix the back, we need a lift that moves the back into a flat position. Then hammer that move to develop the muscles that keep the back in the flat position. To deadlift more, we need a better back.
Then, when you deadlift, you do it with a “better” back. And as a result, you deadlift better. If pendlay rows aren’t working to build a better back, try something else.
