Since I don’t come to the gym with a 2-camera rig and only use my phone, I try to use a directly side view, from the floor, for the deadlift and squat - generally to ascertain things like depth, hip drive, speed, lock-out, back neutrality.
Same for the press, to guarantee the path of the bar is as vertical as it can without actually striking your chin.
Sometimes, I’ll use a 45 degree view, particularly on heavy lifts just to have a different perspective, and also because they look better on social media, shall I ever want to pursue that avenue
For the bench press I’d be curious to hear what everyone else has to say, as I haven’t found a way to do it - maybe due to the positioning of the bench in my gym.
Thanks guys. The side view parallel with the squat parallel goal makes a lot of sense as well as for bar path.
for other angles, what do people think they are getting our of it? Asked another way, for what other objectives/form check goal would you use other camera angles?
thanks again. This was helpful and I’ll check out those links!
