First pull phase: lift bar from floor by forcefully extending hips and knees. ... Keep elbows fully extended (straight), head in a neutral position and shoulders over the bar. As bar raises, keep it as close to shins as possible. Transition (scoop) phase: as bar passes knees, thrust hips forward and slightly re-flex knees to avoid locking them. ... Second pull phase: Forcefully and quickly extend hips and knees and plantar-flex ankles (stand on toes).Keep bar as close to body as possible. ...
