RC/PE1 Form Check

Hi guys,

How are these Hinge Rows?

Hi Jeff, well....I like a lot how you begin the movement, very intelligent especially to check if the half repetition has the upper body vertical.

For the rest nice rom and tempo. well done.

Good effort, Jeff!

Alessandro: how important it is  to keep hips static, without elevation changes during the hinge? I know it helps a lot with body awareness, but is it something to keep one from progressing to PE2 (while maitaining PE1 as warm-up and trying to keep hips more still) or something to keep you on PE1 until it's solved?

If during the rest phase the hips move it's a sign of lack of general body tension or loss of alignment. Holding a certain body shape ensures the best activation for certain muscles.

Hi @Alessandro Mainente, I failed on my first set of these. Biceps failed, forearms were also feeling the pump. Standard?
