SL PE1 for evaluation

I'm just making sure this looks okay. I'm not yet strong in the position but I wanted to make sure I was arched enough.

SL PE1

Dang! That is so unfair!

Great ROM Chris 

Agreed. Arch less .

I propose that you try it -without- allowing your knees to bend. think of how much you dislike me for saying that after trying it

As in contract my quadriceps? And therefore only allow my glutes to extend my hips? I just tried that and I can't get my legs very high. I could barely get 24 seconds with my previous form.

mhm, if you bend your knee, you're giving the illusion of hip extension.

i noticed that in a form check i reviewed from some workouts. lay prone(stomach down) lock your knees and lift with straight knees. it will blow your mind!

Locked knees are mandatory unless you have a note from your doctor

My Doctor won't give me a note, so I guess I'm stuck practicing with locked knees. Gluts are on fire. Anyone have a fire extinguisher?

That is the fire of improvement. When it dies down, you find progress in the coals

I usually just find ash and rock among the disconcerting smell of burnt body hair...but results may vary.

You guys are nuts. I wanna party with you

In a bed of coals I find steel softened enough to be forged!
