Hey guys I’m pretty much a complete noob and would really appreciate any form critique you guys could give me (I know my form is far from perfect, or even good)
Both lifts are last set at %80 of 1RM
Excuse the sniffles in the video I have a bit of a manflu this week.
Not that bad form wise, only last rep you leaned a bit forward. As long as you break at the hips keep your ass out and chest up and breathe properly it should continue to progress. Leaning forward usually means your getting tired and your back is giving in or some type of flexibility issue. Keep hitting your back with rows and chinups. I use my lats 2 pull on last reps if I’m getting tired. It burns like fuck but Itforces chest up, the most important thing is your lower back never should round, so keep working it’s looking good for the most part. I know your new to it, so honestly it just takes building a base as your doing. Some may point out that your ankles or hips may need flexibillity work I would say just keep getting stronger and work with weights that are challenging but allow to keep form proper.
Here’s the other vid.

Thanks for the response! Do you think my depth is ok?
For your squat: Try going lower bar, really focus on the cue “butt back, knees out”. And for deadlifts: you want to really push your hips through, and push your hips back more when setting up. It looks more like a squat with the barbell in your hands instead of a hip hinge exercise.

Thanks I’ll try take your advice 
Your depth is decent really focus as mentioned on ass out chest up. The ass to grass squat will come as you get better with squatting. I used to squat similarly to the way you dow hich is right above parallel and use hips as an elastic to shoot up lol. I will say that at least you look as though you lift many people take years to have a decent base so good for you.
You look like you’ll have a good bench from the looks of your build which is important. For deadlift I will just say on how I do it which is not right or wrong it just how i happened to learn. For powerlifting you want the bar to go the shortest distance which is a straight line, unles syour above the globe then it is a curvedline but nvm that.
You want your feet close together on a conventional pull, just inside shoulder width. When you get down you want you hips in the middle of too high and to low, what ever feels good works but you wanna include glutes and hams in the lift and not just lower back. Tense the shit out of your legs, clench your jaw and lever the weight up with hips hams glutes once you get 2 the knee area your back will kick in.
Dont hinge do it all in one motion. Keep hands close to yourbody. It is hard to dissect it without being there so get a person with a good deadlift to critique your form in person, it is simple though just remember dont round your back out ever only once your super advanced and doing max’s is it slightly okay to round out the upper back. Your disc health is very important to lifting your entire life.
