Snatch Grip High Pull Twice/Wk

Hello,

Love the SGHP. It is by far my new favorite lift. Question, I am currently doing shrugs and farmer’s carries on Monday with Shoulders. SGHP from the hang on Wed or Thurs with Back and SGHP from the blocks on Sat with Legs.

Day 1 = upper push
Day 2 = legs
Day 3 = upper pull
Day 4 = upper push
Day 5 = legs

The program is a little lat and pull deficient so I am hoping to compensate for that by doing SGHP twice per week.

Thoughts?

Thank you,

I do get pretty good lats stimulation from the olympic pulls, especially from the hang because I focus on keeping the lats tight ans chest rocked up at the start and when I lower the bar to the knees and explode. However I got an improved back development when I added 50 ring rows (torso parallel to the floor) at the end of my sessions.

Wow, I meant to say Trap deficient. I apologize. I am intrigued by the ‘power look’ muscles that you wrote about. Is hitting the traps 3 times per week too much? I will absolutely add the ring rows to my workout.

Thank you,

Chris

Christian,

Anywhere where a complete novice can learn some of these holds ?

Bought the rings last week - finding a book or something is proving harder.

Thanks as always.
