Also, are you a believer in keeping your knees behind or as far as your front toes when going down?

Appreciate any tips, maybe I'll get on your level one day
As mentioned, knees never beyond toes. For the most part dead lifts target the same muscles as squats so they are not needed but you can use partial rep deads and loose the bottom part of the lift (start at knee level or slightly lower)
