ME Lower Good-mornings out of straps ... that failed

APF State meet December 15, 2019

Training

This variation I have always been weak at and frankly always turn it into a squat anyway. It was glaring how poor my lower back was able to help. With these things in mind, for me as a lifter, this variation will be better suited for a down set during a concentric phase maybe or just stick to conventional pulling as I feel it was a safer position for me to be in. During the movement, I kept telling myself, "this is too low" but rolled with it anyway. Now, you will see in the video the weight moved fast, what is hard to see is the strain I had trying to get the weight moving off the straps, this is where I was at the most "dangerous" position where risk > reward and since I strained for that 2-3 seconds before the weight flew I decided to call It there.

Rough variation for me. Was suppose to strain, once the weight got moving there was no strain but watch close it takes a good 2 seconds to get the bar moving and it felt terrible. 1- 455 GM out of straps 2- Triphasic Pause high bar squats 3x5 3- RDL’s #Elitefts #TeamElitefts #Livelearnpasson #MoHawkMethod #BellaForza @julia.ant_toe @elitefts @illianapowerasylum #Conjugate #Triphasic #Conjuphasic
