Points of Performance

  • Let’s go over some points of performance
  • For Set up, you want:
    • feet under your hips in jumping stance
    • grip a thumbs distance away from your legs
    • hook grip
  • with the hang you skip the first pull so we will be focused on the second and third pull
  • You’ll start by bowing over until the bar is just above your knees
    • from here your shoulders are in front of the bar
    • your shins are vertical
    • you’re looking straight forward
    • back tight with shoulders back
    • knuckles facing the ground
  • as you extend into the high hang position you want to keep the bar close to you with your lats engaged
    • in the high hang position your back is vertical
    • your feet are balanced on the ground
    • you’re ready for extension
  • You’ll hit triple extension
