Touch and go trying for some speed, bounce a little excessive. Like I said I'm no expert, but it almost looks like 2 movements. Hinging at the hips, hips going back slightly almost like an RDL going down. Looked like you were rounding your back slightly and losing tension at the bottom of the reps. Your glutes drop then you squeeze your shoulders back and glutes up. I've been told to build tension and brace at the start of the rep. I find touch and go reps keep me tight the entire rep. You could try doing a complete reset/pause at the bottom of each rep? Squat University and Dr John Rusin have some good info and clips on their pages. 1 ohjoshua reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
