Including 1 rep with a double overhand grip for 340

2a) wide-stance GM (3x6) 195
2b) incline bench (3x8) 185

2.5) Neutral grip chins with hamstring flexion (14)

3a) snatch bb row (3x12) - 145

Hamstring Flexion during Chin-ups? What is that? I don't get it...

Craig Ballantyne, CTT, Certified Turbulence Trainer said...

When most people do chinups, they allow their legs to be bent at the knees in a relaxed fashion. But if you contract your hamstrings, you keep your form stricter.

It prevents you from swinging your legs forward and putting momentum into your chinup.
