How should I improve my form? I know my legs go back instead of staying along the center line but I can't figure out how to correct it.

In this one the first two reps are okay but they I make the same mistakes as in the 1plate reps.
The fuck you think this is?
ARE YOU WEARING FUCKING SLIPPERS?

1. Pull out the slack of the barbell before you actually try to lift the bar in order to not lose tension in your body. Just do a tiny pull until the bar clicks and then you can begin the lift.
2. Use your lats to keep your back straight. Think about "protecting your armpits" as if somebody were trying to tickle you. Thinking about squeezing an orange in your armpits is another cue that helps some people.
3. Make sure you build tension in your hamstrings before you lift. Think less about moving the weight UP and DOWN. Instead, think about moving your ass BACK and FORTH.

Point 3 is extremely important. If you can't seem to figure it out, search for videos on how to "hip hinge".
