11/3 “Thursday”

#techniquetuesday • Today we talk about the first pull in the snatch and/or clean. We understand there are many variables to setup, liftoff and execution of this technical lift. Only the 1st pull is what we will talk about here. • The first pull ensures the right muscles are being used and positioning of the body is correct for the next pulls; the 2nd and 3rd. • In this, the lift is executed correctly from the start and ensures the most success as you continue on through the lift. • When you're lifting properly like this, you will continue the long and rewarding journey to bigger lifts, all while being safe! • If you're a current lifter and not making any progress or have been stalled out for a while, come and talk to one of our @usa_weightlifting coaches, or any of our #crossfit L1 coaches. We are all qualified to teach beginners to intermediate lifters. If you need advanced coaching, we do that too!
