This is nothing new but there are a couple coaching points that I feel are commonly missed on these. - tuck your chin - - this will help keep the athlete from pulling with their low back - squeeze your glutes- this will also help w low back activation and train the glutes at the same time - knees straight in the bottom- athletes are notorious for not straightening their leg in the bottom. If you have to you can go smack their kneecaps while curing them to straighten their knees. - feet straight- letting the toes turn out can exacerbate right lateral hamstrings which is a problem many athletes have. It also lessens recruitment of the medial hamstrings - - I typically have athletes do lower reps on heavy days in the 6-10 range and higher reps on their dynamic or speed days in the 12-20 range. Usually, this means we add resistance on heavy days and make these easier on speed days.
