It looks like you're externally rotating your arms. You need to pull arms straight back without letting your elbows turn out. When your traps cramp up, you'll know you're doing it right!

I tried what you said and i think i got it. For anyone visiting this thread the mental tip that worked for me was thinking that the weight should be lifted by the shoulders, and no other movement should be allowed except by actively pulling back the shoulders. Trap activation seems very important too so keep the head high , maybe i ll post a video next time to compare. 

 

Thanks again :)
