Video Details

Performing a proper regrip is essential during exercises like the lche to maintain a solid hold on the bar. The regrip technique involves sliding your hands around the bar to ensure a more secure grip, especially if you've noticed that your hands are starting to slip. This can happen if there's too much swinging or if the grip has loosened during the movement, which can lead to a loss of control during critical moments, such as executing a forward swing.

The ideal time for a regrip is during the backswing when athletes can afford a brief moment to adjust their grip without compromising their performance. At the apex of the swing, it's possible to let go and regrip effectively, ensuring that the hand moves to a position that allows for better control. Starting with small movements can help build confidence; as comfort increases, the regrip motions can be made larger, which naturally flows with the rhythm of the swing.

In summary, the regrip technique is vital for maintaining a secure hold during dynamic movements, especially where swinging is involved. Practicing this skill ensures that the grip remains strong and prevents the hands from peeling off the bar unexpectedly. Ultimately, this leads to better control over the performance and reduces the risk of falls or injuries resulting from a lack of grip strength.

Key points:

  1. A regrip is necessary for maintaining a solid grip during dynamic movements like the lche, especially when swinging.
  2. The optimal moment for a regrip is at the apex of the backswing, allowing for proper hand placement without losing control.
  3. Starting with small regrip movements can increase comfort and confidence, enabling more significant adjustments as skill improves.

The Lesson

Dead-Hang on a full height bar and start to generate swinging momentum by trying to get your hips to move forwards and backwards.

You must get your hips at a 45 degree angle to the ground on the forward and back swing. You can swing as much as you like until you get the angle.

On the apex (highest point) of the back swing, demonstrate a re-grip of the hand hold with both hands. This means you will need to let go of the bar for a second and the re-grip your hands for a more sturdy grip.

Repeat three times.

Kick out in front of you with your legs, trying to get them as high as possible. On the back swing, try to hook your feet back by bending your knees. Repeat this process to get your hips moving back and forth.

Your hands must be in a pronated grip.

occasionally when you are doing a lche
9.639
you need to do uh a
12.32
regrip so a regrip is where you're
17.16
sliding your hand around the bar to get
21.039
more of a solid grip because potentially
24.039
you've you've been swinging too much and
26.519
your grip has loosened off and it's
30
sliding around the bar the problem for
32.599
with that is as you start sliding around
35.12
as your hand kind of goes underneath you
37.64
try to do a forward swing your hand
41.239
slides off and that's not good obviously
45.6
so a regrip is required now on the back
48.68
swing that's when you kind of want to do
51.12
it you're sort of floating in the air as
53.879
you are at the Apex and you can
57.719
literally let go and regrip R back
60.64
around again and it means that yeah your
63.359
your hand is Not underneath your hand is
65.479
way on top so you can do this to start
68.84
with just do small ones and again just
71.88
sort of like do a small little regrip
74.2
around so as you swing here regrip and
78.36
swing and regrip okay it's just a tiny
81.68
little
82.799
movement as you feel more comfortable
85.6
again this becomes bigger so as the
87.96
swing becomes bigger you literally as
90.159
you come up you're you're going to float
93.24
your hands are going to literally leave
95.68
and then you're going to regrab I'm just
97.28
going to watch this back bar so I don't
99
go too far but from
104.399
here
109.399
yeah that's how you RRP you do it on the
112.92
back swing again similar to The Landing
115.36
and the Dismount of the lche this is to
118.52
get that hand further around around so
120.439
you feel a little bit more solid again
122.439
otherwise yeah you're going to start to
124.119
feel that grip releasing coming off
127.479
peeling off the bar and you don't want
129.84
that
