Light years better… Seriously, light years… When you watch this video make two notes to yourself: One, notice the way your elbows are slightly bent and then jerk straight when you are starting your pull (accompanied by a lurch in your body), this is because you are jerking the bar off the floor instead of pulling out the slack in the bar and then initiating your pull; two, look at your head and eyes and watch what they do, I am really bad about this also, but if you start with you head and eyes down there can be a tendency when it gets heavy to let your ass shoot up and your upperback round, think about trying to fix your gaze forward or even slightly upward without straining your neck of course.
Nice work getting the arms nice and vertical and dropping the butt down a bit. Just keep the form nice and tight and keep working the weight up. Do you do anything specifically to strengthen your upperback? If not I would start. Face-pulls (with an arched back and I even like to look up when doing them), YTWLs (same thing as face-pulls), pull-ups, T-bar rows all down while trying to arch the crap out of your upperback are good options and will make your pull better, but also will carryover to squats and even pressing.
Keep after it!
1.30.2011
Legs
Squat sets of 3 b/w 185 and 225 (20 pound increase)
Deadlifts sets of 3 between 285 and 315 (30 pound increase)
Ab circuit 4 sets of 10.
I am really feeling the new form. I will have new videos on wednesday showing the head improvement.
Things are looking up 
It still looks like you are jerking the bar off the floor. I also think you might consider looking up before you even initiate your pull (like right after you take your breath and drop your ass). It’ll make keeping your chest up easier and prevent your back starting to round as the weight gets heavier. Just some fine tuning.
Let’s see some bigger weight now!

Haha Yes I will go bigger weight, but I want to make sure my form is spotless (well, relatively anyway) before that. I will be doing legs this Sunday and have a video for that and I hope I can get it right with out jerking on the bar!
I am also going to start logging all my workouts, even though the weights don’t change every week. BTW, these workouts are much more fun than 5/3/1, but that is completely a personal perspective.

I think it’s very important that it is fun, because really we’re not making money doing this. It’s just a hobby/lifestyle, so if it isn’t fun what’s the point?
I think jerking the bar can be a tough habit to break. Just think about feeling the bar bend a little as you start your pull and then explode. You can also think about flexing your triceps as you initiate the pull, so you at least won’t rupture a bicep even if you do jerk the bar off the floor.
All the best!
