Struggling with anchor grip
I’ve been poling for about four months, and anchor grip is my nemesis :’) I’ve tried following the suggestions of all the lovely comments people left on my Reddit post, but it’s still not making sense for me. Is there something else I can try? Or do I just need to keep drilling it until I develop the back muscles I need? Thanks!
I can't get this basic b grip;; What am I doing wrong?

Ok! I’ll post the videos in the order you should watch them in.
The first one covers how the bottom arm (pushing) should feel and be placed on the pole. https://www.studioveena.com/tutorial/forearm-push-grip-pull-grip-free-838/
Then, have a look at this video https://www.studioveena.com/tutorial/easy-up-split-grips-4-ways-869/ This grip not only required the correct positioning, it does take a lot of strength, so working on the related tutorials will be very helpful. I suggest doing the listed exercises 3 times a week.
Give these a try and feel free to film the attempts and I can then look at it and help you troubleshoot more if needed 🙂
