There's a different training ideology. We preach avoidance of lower back pressure through form avoidance. These guys train their lowerback to be bullet proof instead.

[@trtnec]

Li Dayin, the new world record holder in 81kg has long limbs and maybe the best jerk of any Chinese lifter (or possibly any lifter)

[@dessertlimbo]

Teringventje they are long because the length of torso and lower body is relative so even if you're 5'10 or 6'5 it doesnt matter as long as its relative

[@pinkyogurt6359]

@Teringventje this isn't a hard concept to grasp. Man has long legs some compared to his upper body

[@tatarczuk572]

Why do Lu moves his hand when squatting?

[@JonathonBao]

From my experience, it is less demanding on the thoracic flexibility to maintain upright torso with a wider grip. So when pushing through the sticking point of a heavy squat, he might "cheat" on the grip when he feels like he is going to loose the optimal torso position.

[@tatarczuk572]

@@JonathonBao Got it - thanks for the asnwer

[@shohikenmv6708]

I think it's because he almost lost his tightness to where he feels uncomfortable with heavy weights. People tend to experience this when the weights gets too heavy for them.

Helps with shoulders and triceps you can’t overload those muscles as hard with an OHP as you can with bench it’s not necessary to bench but it can be useful
