Plate Pinch

Technique

How to perform Plate Pinch

1. Stand upright and pinch one plate at its edge with the thumb on one side and the fingers on the other, rather than hooking a handle or the center hole.
2. Let the arm hang beside you and hold the plate clear of the body with the wrist controlled.
3. Maintain the pinch without using the other hand to support the plate.
4. Set the plate down under control before the grip opens, then repeat with the other hand.
