From the video

Answers: How can I fix form issues in my squat, bench press, and deadlift for powerlifting?

• powerlifting form critique
• squat stance and bracing
• bench press elbow flare
• deadlift shoulder rounding
• powerlifting footwear selection

Exercises

• squat · barbell · 5x5 at 405 lbs
• bench press · barbell · 115 lbs
• sumo deadlift · barbell · 4 sets at 85% (275 lbs)
• squat · barbell · 8 at 425 lbs
• bench press · barbell · 205 for sets of 4
• deadlift · barbell

What it concludes

• Using heeled shoes and a firmer sole in squats can improve foot rooting and balance.
• Tucking elbows and moving the touch point lower on the chest during bench press can reduce elbow flare and maintain tightness.
• Depressing shoulder blades rather than shrugging them up during deadlifts creates a stronger spinal structure.
