In the panda pull (I prefer to call it snatch pull with rebend) you are:

  1. not pulling the bar as high

  2. once past the initial explosion you are pulling yourself down instead of pulling the bar up

  3. mimicking the dynamic structure of a snatch, where after the explosion (2nd pull) you are actively pulling yourself under the bar (3rd pull).

  4. Can use more weight because of the lesser distance travelled.

It is also more difficult technically than a high pull.

The high pull, IMHO, has a greater effect on hypertrophy but the pull with rebend has more transfer to the snatch.

Ok thanks !! :wink:

Geez, look how close to his chest he gets the bar…

Is that 190kg on the bar?
Looking at the lifter, I’m guessing that’s around 100%+ of his Sn 1RM.
Is the Snatch Pull w/ Rebend typically loaded heavier than the SGHP?

That’s above his 100% snatch. about 25-30kg more than his max
