Basically, when you are standing up from a squat, do you move your hips up first before straightening the rest of your body all whilst pushing off from your heel?
A good picture is worth a 1000 words. Much appreciated Andy.
Yeh I reckon depending on how you sit in/get up from a chair it could be very similar, or very different! And there are different variations on the movement and initial positioning. (I don't just mean Olympic vs Powerlifting style either, foot position, angle, knee movement are coached differently by different people).
Also depending on your current mobility or lack thereof, you might find certain parts of the movement or positioning harder than others.
FYI you may not have to join a strength focused gym (unless you want to) but they may offer to do an assessment for a small fee.
So I am a bit confused. I would have thought perfect form should make a lift easier? (rather than bad form/cheating/leaning forward).
Maybe Im the body type Fadi mentioned and this leaning forward is good for me provided I keep my chest up.
