Negative Verticle Body Lever FL/PE11

Hi guys

I'm due to attempt this today:  Negative Verticle Body Lever FL/PE11

I've mastered the previous (but not with raised shoulders) and I will have to do this on a smith machine at my gym.

Just wondering how much contact the shoulders should have with the floor?  Should they be pressed firmly into the floor? 

 

 

Yup, shoulders should be on the floor. 

 

If you want a real challenge you can put your shoulders on a mat to elevate them
