Feel free to fire away with criticisms and advice.

Improved strength in the hips through proper movement mechanics & learning to keeping the back in the correct alignment with the use of the broomstick handle so the back stays flat.

you're hinging by tilting forward, you need to hinge by sticking your butt backwards

Had a "mess" with it a couple of times and it does feel "different". Much more pull on my hamstrings which I'm thinking is probably a combination of tightness there & still in my back.

Will video again later this week.
