L to V lifts form check

Hi Coaches,

how does it look? Is the bar on my back too low?

Hey Felipe, can't you provide a bar behind your shoulders? your hips are rising too much.

Sure will try to lift the bar so I have It behind my shoulders

Hey @Alessandro Mainente

Do you think I will benefit by doing a kip extension after the V part of the movement? Kind of doing kip extensions and L to V lifts at same time

just saw a vid from Allan Bower doing that

or better to do them separately?

Thanks

No, because it works the lats. we want to take off completely...or as much as possible...the lats from the equation.

Oh I see, will do separately then

Hi @Alessandro Mainente

I increased the height of the bar a bit, is it now behind my shoulders or it should be a bit higher?

Thanks!

It looks like you need to raise the bar even more. Try to shoot for somewhere around the top of your shoulders and base of your neck without having the bar digging into your C7.

Thanks Jeffrey! Will share a vid next week with the adjustments

Hi @Jeffrey Bittner

Hi Felipe are you doing the exercise with a palm grips for a particular reason?

Hi Alex, just did it like that without thinking, what should be the right grip?

 

thank you

Oh you mean undergrip? Just to avoid using the lats like in the previous excercise

Another option is increasing the hand's distance.

Will try that one, thanks!
