help me take a look at my form guys, is there anything that might seem off? the amount of speed difference between my off the floor and lock out annoys me a shit ton

I don’t really know if anything is off but it looks very similar to my deadlift, I do the same thing. Maybe you’re just really strong at lockout, your rack pulls are really high compared to your deadlift.
Other than that I often see people say stuff about the set up when you’re slow off the floor but you’ve probably already seen that.
Bonus photo? Well, this is what I’d look like if I stepped closer to the source of light haha. I’d consider this a very flattering photo of my current physique if I were to be honest with myself. I actually somewhat like the bodyfat percentage I have in this photo. All I need is a shit ton more muscle mass. Plus the blinding light blocks out the complete lack of upper chest and chest in general.
It looks to me like until it’s at your knees the bar is too far out in front of you, so you have to fight to keep it from drifting even further. Once you reach your knees the bar is right on you, so you don’t have that drifting problem and more.
##FOOD 7:00AM to 6:15PM - was on the rescue canoe and ate the occasional tiny(literally peanuts) snack here 1:00PM - some boxed catered food, rice with chicken and veg 8:00PM - mcdonalds, 2 mcchicken, 9 mcnuggets, 1 large sprite, 1 strawberry mcflurry
I’ve no idea how many calories
##Training
Well this was an interesting and rather funny session… I entered the gym at 8:54PM. The gym closes at 9:00PM. The gym attendant was telling me “Bro, we’re closing, you can’t be here” and I went “I’ll be done before 9, don’t worry.”
Squats
there was literally no rest, just me loading plates
60kgs x3
100kgs x1
120kgs x1
137.5kgs x1
Hah, I still got my squat daily top single streak going. I consider this a little victory in life.
So basically, I entered the gym at 8:54PM, squatted/load the weights myself/kept the weights myself, and left at 8:57PM. It might seem stupid but I was actually a tad bit impressed with myself haha.
Hmm, perhaps you can try digging your heels as you push the ground away. I figured this out while doing Good Mornings and it helped my speed off the floor a lot along more hamstring work.
