RC/PE19

Hi coaches,

Does this attempt look correct: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XSZ-NTyOO1U&feature=youtu.be

I think I am not pausing enough the top...

The pull feels fairly intense even in half lay. It will take my shoulders, biceps a while to get used to this. I was really feeling it.

Thanks!

it is fine....always think about pushing the elbows down...

Hi coaches,

I've got two reps stringed together in each set. I took your advice about pushing the elbows down.

set 1
set 2

Thank you as always!

Nice work, Awais. Try to avoid swinging between reps. Remember to keep your head in a neutral position.

Cool thanks for the feedback Jeffrey!

Finally managed to progress to legs fully extended, keeping to singles for now:

set 1
set 2

Thanks!

Good work. Be careful to keep your head in a neutral position (avoid ducking your chin). Also, remember to engage your core to help keep your spine in alignment. 

Ah yeah… I need to fix the habit with my neck position.

Also when you say keep the spine in alignment, where abouts in the video do you see it not fully aligned?

thanks for the tips!

pay attention to hold the shoulder depressed, the ears are too close to the shoulders...

Okay thanks Alessandro - I’ll make sure.

This is a 5th (final) set with 5 reps, what do you think?

- I'm keeping depressed now.
- 5th set is defenitly hard, as the scapula and their retraction get affected with tiredness.

This is the first set: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hp6LfVhA0ic

And below is the fifth set:

i suggest you to stop t the 4th sets....5th has not enough quality.

Hey!

I've scaled back to 4x4 and this is the 4th set. Are these good quality?

Thanks.

Hey Awais...are you beginning with bent elbows? also my suggestion is to think about holding the shoulder as far as possible at the top  form the bar like a sort of front lever pullup.

Hi Alessandro, sorry I'm not following your instruction. So this is what I look like in the top position. How shall I hold my shoulder in this position?

Gone down to 3 reps to focus on quality and this is the 5th set;

- Arms are fully straight at the bottom.
- Shoulders are depressed at the top, and aiming to lean back.
- Hips are extended at the top.
