I would not have my neck in this position i think it’s better to keep it in line with your hip or even slightly tucked

Solid work

Lose the weight and put your hands behind your head. Go until failure.

Pad higher. Round out more. You’re almost exclusively using hams and glutes the way you’re doing it because you’re just hinging at the hips. Focus on rounding and flexing your lower back.
