Abstract

The article examines the lower body joint kinematics between free high pulls and fixed high pull apparatus in the U.S. The study shows that the use of Cormax Smith Machine Plus provides power output advantages due to its ability to throw and release the barbell. However, the changes in kinematics using the method can affect the athletes' ability to properly perform the platform high pulls technique.
