Great video again James! These subtleties make all the differnce in the world between doing these exercises the right way and the wrong way. Experiencing pain and not. And getting something out of the exercise and not. The TGU looks really complicated to people and I see people execute horrible ones at the gym. Its actually quite simple and I’ve really dialed mine in from watching your videos. Thanks!!!
The details matter a lot over the long run, unfortunately in today’s boot camp/ Crossfit infected fitness world it is also a lost art. Glad the videos have been helpful…
