Hip flexability

[A1food4u]

hello all,

this morning during deads I noticed that my shoulders were coming way forward during the down motion. As I tried to fight for the correction I noticed that the hips were locking up about 3/4's down. I've battled knee issues for awhile but never had real back or hip issues. is this just another gift age is giving me or is there a simple solution in my form or technique that can correct this?

perhaps a yoga class a couple times a week, increase flexibility.
