      Concentric phase is relatively easy, but slow eccentric with right form is a whole journey.

        >I have no idea why it got memed as being dangerous.
        Two groups of people
        First group has shit shoulder mobility and is unable to do the movement correctly, therefore it's le bad for everyone
        Second group has enough shoulder mobility, but complains about shoulder impingement. This outs them as being unable to move their scapula correctly, since when the movement is performed correctly, the scapula upwardly rotates, avoiding shoulder impingement.
        [...]
        Be consistent with them, I started doing them a year ago. Went from being unable to go down 1/8th of the way before falling to doing 10 full reps. I find that nordic curls are very easy to progress as long as you're consistent with them, there's just something special about that movement tbh, I haven't stalled a single time on them so far.

        Also I HIGHLY recommend doing them band assisted if you can set it up, it's by far the best way to bridge to the full version since you can just keep reducing the band resistance until you can do 10-15 reps with your lightest band.

          Thanks for the advice! I'm 2 weeks in and hitting them twice a week. I'll see where that gets me by the end of March and reassess from there.

      Have you tried some kind of reabilitation?

    This feels like very comfortable and "normal" lift to me and I have no idea why it got memed as being dangerous. I've never heard of even one person -AACKing because of a behind the neck movement. Sure there's that one WEBM of the dude doing a 2pl8+ BTN push press and his arms bending back but that couldn't have happened if he just did it in the rack with safeties like a non moron. Much like some idiot choking himself out on the bench because he decided to max out with no safeties/spotter, I don't count that as an AACK. If you don't have shit shoulder mobility (in which case you would feel the pain as you do the lift and thus would stop) what's the issue?

        The thing is, his videos are aimed at morons who just want to lift to be a bit healthier, and if they did those movements, several would end up doing them wrong and potentially getting injured.
        I think he operates with the assumption that people who know better will realize this, since they know better, so little real harm is done.

        Is there a guide for proper form on it?

          Only thing that I need to cue is using my upper traps as much as I can to upwardly rotate the scapula. Once I started doing this I felt 0 pain in my left shoulder, which used to be hurt by that movement. Besides that just press the bar up lol

    The real dark souls of lifts is actually just snatching, this shit is way easier

    Because it's a stupid lift unless you have extremely good mobility
    Not worth the risk
