    Your squat is good. For your overhead press, I would recommend stopping when your arms make an L, instead of letting your arms go all the way down. It will cause better resistance. For your deadlift, I would say to squat down a little when you're going back up, just to take the burden off your knees when you stand up.

    You're rounding your back on your deadlifts. Try bringing your hips down a little more and bringing your chest out before starting your pull- this should put your spine in a more neutral position and take more stress off of it in the process.

    Bend your knees a little more. No need to have a locked out position.

    You have a small "bounce" at the bottom of your squat. On the decent, slow it down and stay in control. Don't use momentum to get the weight up by bouncing at the bottom.

    Drop your hips more and push your chest out. Your low back should be flatter.

    Definitely don't do this. OHP starts at the collarbones. Not doing full ROM is pointless unless you have an injury or something that you're working around.

    Bar path looked pretty solid on ohp, squat, and dead. The only big thing I'd say is to video these lifts from the front for form check as well. Timing on each rep of your squat may help with consistency of each rep. Remember to stay tight on the descent and back up. Keep the breath in your stomach and don't blow out early since that will take away from your tightness. Start the deadlifts with hips lower to make sure your firing your glutes for the push as well as your back for the pull. If you are having trouble with glute activation, widen your stance a touch and point out your toes. Nice work!!!
