Stop Extending At Your Lower Back! Try this T-Spine Snatch Drill and Learn How to Extend the SAFE Way in the Olympic lifts — In today’s episode of Weightlifting Academy!
Everyone keeps telling you to EXTEND more – not just in the hips and knees.. but in the torso. But if you do this at the lower back, you WILL pay for it later!
Instead, learn how to STABILIZE the lower back and extend at the T-Spine instead. (For more on how to stabilize your core correctly, watch Chris Duffin’s Video on How to Squat.)
This is a drill that should be done with a PVC, Stick, or Empty Bar… I suppose you could add some weight, but I’d be wary of loading it up. It’s a mobility drill and motor-pattern-learning drill. Not a “Bro” drill, lol.
