Is this form even legal
So just ignore what the twins are saying. The video they are talking about is so weird. Is her form even legal. Her arms are too far apart, her feet are not flat on the ground and her but is off the bench for part of the lift. skip to 24 seconds.

To me...and i'm not a judge or expert...but her shoulders and glutes were on the bench, but her feet were not flat nor did she rack the weight herself...but also depends on the fed she lifts in.
-
It's legal in any fed that doesn't require the lifter to keep their feet flat or allows the spotters to rack the bar.
On a related note: Ay mayne?! U wanna beel some mussel mayne?!

Federation: IPA
Lift: good.

you don't need to rack the weight yourself.

But it's just advice. You do whatever the F[size=2]U[/size]CK you wanna do!

Wow those guys seem like idiots. Her butt seems like it says down while she is performing the lift, and it's hard to tell her hand width... I think it just looks extra wide because she is so tiny.

Hodgetwins are retarded, anything they say is invalid anyway
As for the lift. I'm not a fan of excessive arching at all, I think it stops you reaching your full potential on bench. Personally if I arch too much I lose power and the benefit of shorter ROM doesn't matter as I get weaker from the position. I also prefer feet flat or it gets a bit ridiculous in situations like this.

Those two guys have a face built for Radio.
On the topic of the lift, if it meets the rules, it's a good lift. Rules state: shoulders and butt on bench, grip width, touch chest, pause and lock out. She did all of those. The fact that she can contort herself into a knot and make the actual distance a bare minimum of a distance, is just her advantage.

Ah...good to know, thanks

Perfectly legal in the IPA
Thing of beauty right there
-
The only thing that doesn't look legal is that her butt wasn't on the bench until after she had the weight unracked. Just my opinion.

technically legal even in the IPF as long as you get your butt down before the start command is given.
-
Its legal, butt was on the bench prior lowering the weight. Feet don't have to be flat, just stationary in whatever position they start in and as long as her finger was touching the rings on the bar, its legal.

Daum mayne, dat's a one way ticket to deaf valley, mayne. SNAAAAP!!!!!!! SNAP SNAP!

She's really small, shes probably within the limits, it just doesn't look like it.

Yup lots of Russki's have their heels off of the floor or butt off the bench during the unracking process

waitt hold on a sec.... Does your feet need to be flat to be a good lift or not? because i never have my feet flat but my glutes and shoulders are touching.

If you read all the posts in this thread you would have known the answer to your question. Once again, it depends on the federation and what their rules are. Some allow heels off, others do not. For example, USAPL you have to have your feet flat. But as Bill mentioned several times, the lift is good because she competes in IPA and you are allowed to have your heels off the ground in that fed.

How the hell do people arch without having their feet not flat? I can't even start to arch flatfooted, christ.
