Perfect Posture.......not.

OK, here is a demonstration on how NOT to perform a deadlift. (When performed correctly, this is definitely one of the best overall exercises you can do.)

Note how his back is not quite flat, therefore putting a slight strain on those lower back muscles, and in time would quite possibly lead to some kind of injury........OK; his back is more rounded than the edge of a coin, it will be massively stressing his lower back, and he'll probably damage ligaments, vertebrae, and will soon be having a big layoff from training.

Oh.......nice gym setup by the way....very health and safety conscious!

There is nothing wrong with what he is doing - let him continue to entertain me at work. I enjoyed laughing again at his superb form.
