The Cue-ing and Do-ing of Vertical Pulling with @tompurvisptrts
-
I don’t usually care to post videos of myself training. I can never imagine why anyone would want to watch it 🥱 This is a little different though.

I’m not sat on an ordinary machine.
1) Tom has played with both the resistance and effort cams on this machine to match the profile of the difficulty of the machine to the approximate strength of my movement at the END of a set 😰
-
2) The straps are custom pieces of equipment from www.contractiontools.com in place to remove my elbow flexors (biceps) and grip from the equation by placing the load on my humerus (upper arm) 💪🏽

3) There’s some pretty high-level cue-ing going on. This is NOT how you would cue someone who has limited experience - those basics and the superficial “why” behind them is taught on RTS1. Tom has intentionally left out dozens of cues that he’d use on someone less rehearsed. “You have to know what you’re looking at, and what you’re looking for.” This is an example of getting the very most out of a rep with someone, who at the same time admittedly had never used this setup before but had a large amount of internal ownership of their body 🙏🏽

Everything needs to be considered in context before even considering regurgitating it in application. It should provide plenty for thought though and a good coaching example to follow... or at least listening to me squeal should provide some amusement 😅
