This is Kate

You may have seen her before, she is a model personal training client

She teaches drama

Not built like your typical strongwoman

Is tall & therefore has long legs (not ideal for lifting)

BUT

this is her casually holding 130kg that she has just lifted

After getting strong as anything

Why the Rack Pull:

So lifting weights from the floor is brilliant for strengthening your posterior chain

Which is the group of muscles running from your mid back, your bum, hamstrings (back of the legs) and calves

Being strong around the Hips is important as its pivotal in both movement and posture

Weakness here can lead to backache, imbalances in other areas again causing pain, tightness or restricted movement

Why the Rack Pull?

This is a variation of a Deadlift

As you can see there are 2 plates she is lifting the bar from, a platform for it all to sit on

This raises the height of where you need to hold

So you don’t have to bend over as far

And its the bottom of a deadlift, where you are bent over the most, with your back closest to being horizontal (but not horizontal) where the load is the greatest and most of the issues arise, injuries occur or niggles are formed

so raising this height
Keeps you more upright
reduces risk
it also works at the stronger part of the lift

and makes you look like a boss when you are holding 130kg

she’s also using a hex bar
But ill explain why in another post

is this something you’d like to do
the get stronger part (maybe not the 130kg just yet)
the feeling strong and confident
