    What is the correct grip for the supporting/tabletop hand? Learned it in a workshop and wanted to play with it, but neglected to write down whether it was true grip, cup,etc. TIA!!

    I’ve always done it with true grip. But I’m mostly self taught so I don’t know that it’s correct. Outside hand reaches behind the back with the back of your hand against your body and thumb up. 😉

    True grip is the most neutral position, but I couldn’t tell you what workshops might teach. Some behind the back grips are not reasonable for everyone to do so make sure you’ve go the mobility and strength to do this type of grip. If you start to have shoulder, elbow or wrist pain, do the move less often or skip it.
