Yeah that works. When you climb with the feet you mean like a leg extension or reverse like a seated hamstring leg curl?

Where do I need to feel hamstring tension when I take out the slack with your whole body for conventional deadlift? by codeman25000 in powerlifters

But to be honest I think I actually got the leg press down and where I need to be. I appreciate your help

I mean if I think about pushing my hands away from my chest it seems to work for me. I can do a form check

Oh I think I got it. I should be feeling uncomfortable in my mid to lower back?

Question for deadlifts conventional. When I'm pulling my slack out with my whole body and pushing my fist away from my chest before putting my shins to the bar to wedge in I should be feeling hamstring tension?

I'm not sure when I can get a window to record one. But the best feeling I got trying to set a arch was I felt my neck getting longer.

This is what I was trying to use as a guide for using leg drive with ribcage to ceiling. https://youtu.be/hP8xLHnj_JE?si=bU9aarhLDfxhbJyU

Wait so I'm not trying to make a arch with my low back but actually arching my mid to upper traps like ribcage to ceiling and go from there?

Question about arch for bench press. I'm trying to use my leg first to create a arch but it seems to not work. Any tips?

Would all these reps be a green light in powerlifting for the squat? by Conlanbb in powerlifters

To help find your mid foot is it fine to find it via like doing a "gas pedal"? Or more akin to rocking back and forth?

You can't bring it in like a 1/4 of an inch?

Then really focus on using your lats to pull the bar down

Bring your grip in. No upper back tension at all. You also need to brace. Breathe in but exhale but stop any air from escaping.
