Get one. Don't tell me you can't afford one. People on welfare benefits here in the UK have digital cameras. Post a vid then we can help ciritque your form. Better yet, film it and post on
The Vertical Summit :: Index - plenty people there will be able to help (assuming you post a good clip).

No. Your numbers indicate form issues. I can DL your weight and I just started re-training (and my squat is way down from where it last was).

Trap bar DL. Not a bad substitute, but it feels different. I personally like the normal DL because it is easier for me to maintain grip (i.e. do heavier weights).
