Proper Exercise Technique



Like the power clean the high pull moves weight to shoulder height. But because the weight is suspended away from the body, the high pull is better for training the muscles of the back.

Crouch with back straight and eyes looking straight ahead as shown. Place feet parallel just over shoulder width apart. Pull up on transversus and pelvic floor. Inhale. Raise bar rapidly as shown to shoulder level. Lower slowly to start position while exhaling.

This exerise is a variation of the deadlift. Use light weight on the barbell to avoid being a leg exercise. Tip: Arms should be only very slightly bent so bar is supsended away from body.
