You have gyno in your back

inb4 buttwink on squats
your hamstrings aren't flexible enough to allow your back to be in correct position. they are causing anterior pelvic tilt (APT). stretch them out until you can

Weak abs causing the APT. Do ab wheel everyday and report back
Samuel Adams
thanks a lot! so should I stop doing squats and deadlifts for a while or can I just continue doing them?
Connor Long
Brace better
Use your glutes better
Noah Rogers
Better to stop for awhile
Oliver Thomas
do a bunch of bodyweight squats, hang out in the position, go as deep as you can go to stretch everything out. Shift your weight around
William Harris
Just do Front Squats and RDL's. Forget back squat and conventional deads. Also prepare your anus
Mason Green
agreed, good luck op and keep going

Those guys gave you two different answers.
If your hamstrings are too tight you won't be able to override them to get your lower back into a straight position to do a lift, atleast not at the angle we do dead lifts and barbell rows at.
You can usually tell if your hamstrings are too tight if you can't squat bellow parallel without your butt "winking", which is when it curls in, similar to your second dead lift picture.
You fix this by stretching your hamstrings regularly.
I don't think you have anterior pelvic tilt, you'd fix that by continuing to work your hamstrings.
Just take a picture of yourself from the side and google pelvic tilt to see if that's your problem.
As a certified starting strength coach (I've been lifting for like, 6 weeks now) i suggest your just stretch your hams once or twice a day.

you mean ppt not apt
Sebastian Morales
he has ppt while deadlifting ... wtf expected at least Jow Forums to know this.

Hamstrings are already elongated and in a stretched position with APT, so def don’t. If you have APT, which is hard to tell without standing up straight profiled, your hip flexors are short and tight too. Therefore DO NOT use an ab wheel, as it incorporates too much HF use. Do planks, bosu curls, and idk look up other core w/ no hf exercises. Also, build up your glutes. Don’t listen to this dipshit
Benjamin Bailey
Your back looks weird because you're bending it at the lumbar like a fucking mongoloid. Has nobody ever told you to keep your goddamn back straight when you're lifting?
I'm surprised you haven't thrown out your back already lifting like that, are you lifting toothpicks over there?
Get the fuck off of Jow Forums and read a fucking "how to lift for dummies" book before you wreck your body for life.
Nathan Howard
What you are saying is technically correct, but you're just assuming he has ATP. In fact it's more likely to be PTP (Posterior Pelvic Tilt) when looking at his butt wink.
Regardless, we don't know for sure unless we see a picture of him standing straight from the side, so it's reasonable to assume that he just can't get into proper position because his hammies are tight.
Stretch them out OP.
