i have a few questions:

 

1. How heavy should the bar be?

 

2. Should our elbows be locked?

 

3. Should our face tilt down as if we are kissing the floor? can we tilt our head up?

5 lbs minimum, elbows locked always, chin touching the ground is important but it's not like you have to smooch the floor.

 

Another good cue is to push the bar away and really engage the upper traps...it will really help for the later elements.

45 pounds or you are weak.

Locking elbows are dangerous

Strain to look up at a sideways angle, crossing the eyes and tongue out

:-P

Yup like that
