Set the leader chain up so when the bar is touching the athlete’s chest, the heavy chain is fully, or very close to, deloaded and on the floor. Record what link of the leader chain you clipped in your logbook to avoid having to check this every time, but note that this will vary a little when using some specialty bars like the bow, Rogue MG-4, or camber bars.
