Heel Hook Finish: Flared or Closed Knees? Lachlan Giles

Lachlan discusses how reciprocal inhibition limits the power you can generate from a closed knee bridge, and therefore why you should flare your knees on a heel hook finish.

For everything you need to know about heel hooks check out his instructional The Leg Lock Anthology

I like how Lochlan's coaching and communication skills range between describing technique/movement mechanics with medically accurate anatomical specifics to instructions that an average elementary school student would recognize and execute.
