Just want to make sure the drawing makes sense, as well as the description, make sure I'm not leaving anything out.
1) Start with bar on ground, upper body absolutely parallel to ground from the hips to the shoulders
2) Start with lower back tight and straight, upper back slightly rounded forward
3) Chalk up and grab bar a few inches outside of shoulder width.
4) Do 3 things at once
----a) Accelerate bar from floor toward upper abdomen
----b) Arch upper back by contracting lats (i.e. stick your titties out, like a female model does)
----c) Do NOT stand up at all, lower back and hips should be still, knees should not extend, hips should not extend
See attached "drawing" for representation of the "key points" of keeping lower back parallel and arching only the upper back starting with the lower lats.
