still a devious weightlifting bastard Member 43, 14374 posts	Never heard of this being trained for. I do it, although it certainly isnt something I have trained for. A "transition" from the bar at the knee until the mid-thigh position, results from a forward movement and/or re-bending of the knees such that an un-weighting effect occurs. The forward movement/re-bending of the knees is typically referred to as the "double knee bend" (DKB), the first knee bend occurring at the initiation of the lift. The DKB is largely a result of the backward-upward movement of the trunk during the transition, which contributes to a fixation or more typically a forward movement of the knees. Re-bending of the knees is often as great as 10-20° (Bartonietz 1996, Roman and Treskov 1983). Although not intentional, there is usually a decrease or plateau in bar velocity during this transition as the knees are re-bent and the body is re-aligned for greater vertical force production (Bartonietz, 1996, Enoka 1979, Garhammer and Gregor 1992). A marked drop in bar velocity could be a result of the lifter starting the bar off the floor too rapidly by raising the hips too fast or as a result of weak hip extensors (Bartonietz 1996). It is critical that the DKB take place rapidly as this will reduce the drop in velocity during un-weighting and enhances the efficiency of the re-alignment as a result of a stretch-shortening effect (Bobbert et al. 1996, Enoka 1979, Kuahanen et al. 1984, Reiser et al. 1996). Graphs, charts, lines, graphics???? Looks nice
