Harrowing High Pulls

The high pull is a somewhat neglected animal in our gym. It shouldn’t be. Like any of the partial lifts, it is incredibly useful as a skill builder.

Look at it this way: if you’ve got a machine with 10 different moving parts, it is easier to look at how 3 of those parts interact before you jump right up to all 10. The trouble is, of course, that you gain a limited understanding of the whole machine.

The solution, obviously, is to examine both the micro and the macro at the same time. Simply put: do the high pull and then do the full lift. This gives you a chance to examine a few parts of the lift closely and then apply this new found knowledge to the whole shebang.
