Pull yourself into the bar for proper lat activation - feel the adductor stretch prior to the first pull. That's your signal that the low back is safe.

Flex your biceps, push elbows and serratus anterior forward for a nice stable rack position. Great oomph in the press today on account of those cues!

My tight hips are keeping me back (overactive adductors and hip flexors, underactive abductors). For the time being SLDLs are much better for building posterior strength, while a whole lotta rehab will be necessary to get back to on track with the regular pulls.
