ok so, when the bar is going down my elbows should be tucked close to my body? But isn't that not a straight line when your elbows are lower towards your feet than your wrist? When I hear tuck your elbows in, I picture elbows at hips.

Then when pushing up I flare my elbows out? How far should I be flareing out, in line with my shoulders?

What i'm getting from this is I should be tucking my elbows close towards my hips when bringing the bar down towards the chest and when pushing up I should flare it straight out?
