Hello coaches

Just starting this progression, feedback of form please.

You're off to a great start on this one! On your PE remember to maintain a strong PPT. On your iM, try to keep your core muscles engaged to keep your ribs from sticking out. Keep up the good work!

hey Vanessa, a personal suggestion is to try to externally rotate the upper arm dueing the shoulder flexion so that you can avoid scapular retraction.

Hi Alessandro 

So just confirming as I raise the bar in standing overgrip to overhead you suggest external rotation of shoulder to avoid scap protraction? Thanks

And the rest as in vid instructions....

**As the bar begins to pass overhead shrug up strongly (elevate your shoulders). Once the bar is overhead, roll your shoulders inward and lower the bar behind you, 

Thanks

Yes vanessa it is correct, i refer to the pure shoulder flexion on the floor. not the dislocate.
