HS PE1 + IM Form Check

Hello,

Just wanted a critique of my HS - P1 status, as well as the IM, and what needs the most attention.  Thanks.

HS PE1+IM Form Check

PE1 it is fine.

IM 1 the goal is: no matter how much weight you are using or how much the hands are closer, you need to open the shoulders up to 180° . in order to do that adjust weight and grip.

Alessandro - I don't quite understand what you mean by "open shoulders up to 180"  Does that mean that the shoulders have to rotate "out", or that the arms need to be straight up and down?  I'm not getting much help from the demonstration videos.

Thanks,

Gary
