Love your work, Alec! It would be cool, if for these more “unconventional” exercises, you show how one should set the bars so they can pick it up easily. Kind of like showing how one can set up for an hip thrust before showing how to execute the movement itself. Thanks, man!
hi man is this worth me doing to rehab a bulged disk. I have sciatica for years... up and down.... any tips on rehabing? sometimes it just shuts me off when squatting... literally just boom and nothing.. no strength.
@@Jafmanz I’d highly recommend working directly with a rehab pro as there’s a lot of nuance and individualization that needs to happen with something like that. If you can do the exercise pain free (by modifying load and or ROM to tolerance), you could almost certainly progress it over time, but if you’re currently in pain then navigating those complexities (like when to push through vs back off from discomfort) is something I’d leave to a specialist who has taken the time to do a more thorough evaluation!
Nice thanks 👊

Thanks! For this exercise I would just set the barbell across the bench first and pick it up with the elbows from there
Hey Alec, I'm assuming this primarily hits the spinal erectors as opposed to the glutes because of the spinal flexion, right?
Correct!
