    Hi,

    I was curious as to why this lift (from the 2019 SS coaches association meet) got red lighted. I presume its because he let the bar drop a couple of inches with his hands, just as he did the hip bounce. But Im not too familiar with the Strength meet rules.



    Regards,

    Petar

    Maybe that's the press equivalent of a bounce in the bench press? Interested to hear.

    The bar went back down on the way up.

    Oh yea I see it now, happens midway up when the bars slows. I just thought he was giving it momentum by lowering it with his hands during the hip bounce.
