Set posture: feet armpit-width, bend hips then knees

When setting up after taking the grip, the instructor suggests getting the feet about as wide as the armpits, then bending from the hips first and the knees next. He points out that the angle between the abs and quads and the angle on the backs of the legs should look about the same rather than mismatched.
