Hi,

A question from a beginner: when you're in the German Hang should you be aiming to relax your shoulders so that you are in a dead hang and your weight is being taken by your soft tissues without any real muscle control (other than in your grip); or should it be an active hang where you use muscle power - a bit like a back lever but dropping your body into a lower position?

All advice gratefully received!

Many thanks

Its on the aiming to relax side, but you do have to go slowly.
