HS/PE1 + im form check

I would love to have your opinion on my form for both PE1 and PE1>im.

As for the with of the grip in the im is as wide as my knee with the legs crossed.

I know there is lot of discussion about this point but it seems to me that this is the distance the athlete is using in the video.

I'm trying to narrow the distance every time.

Thanks

Tripod looks A OK.

iM needs some work. You don't want to internally rotate at all (like when you do a dislocate over your head with a band/stick). You want to push straight up and shrug the shoulders as if you were in a handstand. Then lean forward and try to pull back without rotating the shoulders.

This, this, and this, will probably help clear things up as well.

Thanks TANSTAAFL,

it took me some times to read all these topics but it was worth I was definitely doing it wrong.

I'll try to do it right from next time!

TANSTAAFL you're a genius. These three links were amazing. In fact, it would be awesome to aggregate such gold posts into a single FAQ or something. Do you have more golden links like these three?

Anyway, thanks a lot for sharing!

We'll I will say this: if I meet your criteria for genius, your standards are probably a little on the low side . Glad to be of help, and yes I do have more golden links, as well as silver and a few bronze lying around...haven't been able to wrangle up any titanium yet though.  A 3 gig Evernote library usually amasses diamonds at some point .

Hehe

Please share all of this treasure links you have, it's really priceless !!!

And thanks a lot, really, for sharing, it's not taken for granted!

Thanks to TANSTAAFL's suggestions in the last mont I worked the im with a better form and made some progress.

How far am I now from mastery?

Here two videos, in the first one I show the width of the grip (pretty much shoulder distance), the second one is a touch wider (index finger on side of shoulder).

Everyone comment is welcome.

New vids look pretty spot on IMO. The only thing I would make note of is the shaking, and as long as you keep working it in your WU that should pass. I am working HS/iM2 at moment and do 3 sets of iM1 during my wrist routine so it's always there.

Thanks!

I wasn't sure it was good enough but was hoping to be able to move on! 

I'll keep it in my training because I'm really feeling more control and mobility since I started to do it correctly, good idea to put in the warm up!

HS/PE2 I'm coming!
