Comparison of 4 different clean set-ups. Interesting points of observation are variations in stance, grip width and shoulder orientation over the barbell affecting torso inclination.

Great vibe today at CrossFit SkyBox for the clean&jerk workshop. Reports of up to a 30lbs PR were reported today from our snatch workshop just last month! What a great way to spend a Sunday. Can’t wait till our last installment next month.

Fu for thought: Comparison of 2 styles of kettlebell swings. I spotted these 2 athletes wrapping up a WOD at our box and found it interesting the difference in how they used their legs and hips to transfer energy on to the kettlebell. Similar movement patterns can be found in Olympic weightlifting tying them to different styles of pull technique taught by various coaches — both utilized with effective outcomes.

3 cleans, 3 different styles of movement. Each of these athletes uses a different style of pull to complete the rhythm. Some would state there to be a superior technique, but all 3 of these athletes continue to improve and move a high percentage of their squat strength. Why? Because they understand how to leverage their bodies to build speed onto the bar and get into a good receiving shape.

Excited to say that the FuBarbell tour is complete through March of 2014! Only 3 more seminars before wrapping up 2013. It’s been an exciting year!
