Any general advice for keeping a neutral spine while deadlifting for beginners? Not for me. I workout with my cousin and basically "train" him and for the life of him, dude cannot properly deadlift without rounding his spine out like crazy. A work around I've been doing - just so he gets some lower back work in - is 3 quarter dead lifts. He's gotta learn so we tried again yesterday. Awful. Made me a little nauseous TBH. Had to send him to do do rows, lat pull downs and pull-ups instead.
Anyway, he's like 6'3 170 with long arms. Seems to have flexibility issues since he can't really get low. I'm thrown off on advice since our body types are totally different and I've been doing this forever
