Has little understanding of the sugden Member 677, 11338 posts SQ 165, BP 125, DL 220 510.0 kgs @ 80kgs UnEq	After watching some of you oly lifters on saturday, and a bit more on youtube it looks like you actually push the bar with your hips as it passes to help pop it up. Is this right or does it just look like that as you drive the hips forward? ta

Member 905, 239 posts	I am still only a beginner WL but I would say if a lifter tried to use his pelvis to pop the bar it would probably cause the bar to move further away from the body. I think its just an illusion created by how the lifter moves around the bar. But I have heard of people trying that bounce and a lot of weightlifters complaining about bruising around that area on the pelvis.

Member 194, 3976 posts	I am far from a weightlifter but have been practicing. more with the snatch really but the same principle applies. Ihe hips are thrust forward but more to aid the upward force generated from the lower body, basically a powerful vertical jump, the bar should be sliding up the thights as I understand it. It is deffinatly not push or bounced as such but will make contact as the hips drive through. This coupled with a kind of shrug with the arms straight powers the bar upwards, then you drop under the thing. If I am totally off the mark please feel free to correct

That picture is awesome. the guy who said its homo... i like your picture.
