The important thing is to start to pull up with the front foot above the horizontal plain and push down with the back foot below the horizontal plain. Whilst shifting your weight sleightly forward.
Imagine you are looking at the drive side of the bike and the crank arms are the hands of a clock. When your front foot is at around 2 o'clock and your back foot is at 8 o'clock this is when you will try and catch it.
