Never realized the energy in halfway lift was supposed to be like a back bend. Completely changes the way it feels and boy it feels good! Thanks for another great breakdown.
3:22 is probably the best illustration of this point. I think a lot of instructors emphasize leaving the hands on the floor, or maybe on the knees. Some instructors will cue the hands on the thighs. Personally, I like hands-on-thighs, because it feels like I can also engage my shoulder blades and get the sensation I'm doing a bent-over row. Does that make sense/is that a good way to approach halfway lift?
Yeah that makes loads of sense! Whatever it takes to give you the feeling of being able to access and engage the most amount of muscle the back chain is the proper technique/alignment
