Looks OK as far as I can see, however it does look like your knees are locking out faster than your hips.

You need to "fall backwards" as you pull up.

Guess I'll keep practicing until I get it right. I want to get the form down. Thanks!

Well, there's a little mantra we use to lock out deadlifts that goes something like:

"F**K THE BAR!!! F**K THE BAR!!! F**K THE BAR!!!"

This is really a hip thrusting movement. If you remember that, your timing should improve.

Me: "There's this really cool message board. I can videotape my exercises, go upstairs and post them on the net. In a few minutes people come back with comments. It's very addictive."

My Wife: "Cool."

A few minutes later I came downstairs.

My Wife: "So what did they tell you?"

Me: "F**K THE BAR!!! F**K THE BAR!!! F**K THE BAR!!!"

My Wife: ?????
