Your grip is neutral which is fine but you may potentially want to strengthen your grip a little. Concentrate on fixing these and things will start looking better! Here is a video on fixing early extension: ▶ this video Here is a video about hip rotation: ▶ this video Here is a video to help keep your hands/hips in …
