My 2018 squats 375 and deadlifts 450. Tops out at 87, sits mid 80s. Trying to increase flexibility, hip turn, and work on mechanics to add velocity. Strength isn’t the issue.
How is his t-spine mobility?

I’m not sure to be honest. Curious though about your question. In a flexibility, mobility evaluation his lower back is an area that has been identified that could be vulnerable to injury because of his sway back/spine curvature. Maybe this should be the focus rather than the hips? He’s successfully worked hard to increase hip flexibility and still no bump in velocity. His hip turn is visibly slower than a 90 plus guy in comparison. Arm generates plenty.

He’s obviously very frustrated that he’s not generating more velocity.
