    Respect to pulling the couch cushions out to the garage just for the sake of the leg drive demo. Epic levels of commitment.

    I always struggle with hip contact and normally just pull without the contact, this helps a lot. Thank you!

    No leg drive, no party. The leg drive helps the hips move up because it is a major factor in controlling its direction. The legs drive the hips upward rather than forward. Then, speed can generate results. It is an amplifier: Without leg drive, you can&apos;t have a proper hip extension, but both are quintessential for the lift. Thank you for the video!

    Great video! This was a topic of discussion in my training session for the day. My second pull was way to slow and short, took a while to put the pieces togheter. Ill try this complex in my next warmup. Thanks for the infos!
