Donny Shankle on Negative Pulls

Donny Shankle makes a point for slow negative pulls.

And boy, he really means slow. 10 count slow.

Benefits:

• strengthens back arch
• improves ability to stay over the bar longer -> puts you in a powerful position to “finish” as violently as possible -> get under the bar quicker
• great way to tackle the dreaded stripper pull (hips rising faster than shoulders)
