Overhead squats are often used within the strength & conditioning community as a functional movement screen to flesh out and illuminate physical limitations and asymmetries.

Hope you all have had a very productive training week.
Happy Friday!
We had a large response from last week’s post on the split snatch/clean from athletes interested in trying out this variation of movement. Here’s a video demonstrating the footwork involved in pulling under the bar.
Points of consideration:
1. The first and second pull are the same.
2. The third pull is essentially like your split jerk but with a longer and deeper base.
3. Because of the longer base, the split is also more forgiving of potential form errors.
Our first platform was rescued house siding that had been abandoned for recycle and held together by duct tape. It wasn’t much, but it was ours.

Fun highlight from the weekend: Rachel Lim at 135lbs/61kg BW setting a lifetime PR clean&jerk at 183lbs/83kg. Not bad at all if I do say so myself.

Position is king in weightlifting. Being shifted forward or back just one degree will have a direct result on where that bar will go. An observation as I work with many newly initiated weightlifters is the body’s unawareness of how to navigate to key points of the pull consistently making for equally inconsistent bar paths and often frustrating practice sessions.
Day 2 hanging out with CrossFit Kendall complete!
Highlights for the day?
1. Athletes ready and dialed to learn the ins and outs of Olympic-style weightlifting and weightlifting technique.
2. Cuban food is bomb diggity.
3. Cuban coffee is even better!
