Stepped out during the clinic to watch Nikita catch his workout with some coaching from Polovnikov.

#tbt, remembering the days when it was cold, wet and zero excuses were given. Christmas is over. Time to get back on that barbell!

Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas! I hope your day is filled with love, laughter and joy. #FuBarbell
Getting some squats in at The Sports Palace before heading out to spend the next few days with family. Run by Coach Jim Schmitz (@jimschmitz), this is the place where I first grew my roots. The walls have history dating back to the 70s and Jim can recount stories of every Olympic, World, National, and PWA local level meets. I’ve been to many wonderful weightlifting gyms and this is by far still my favorite.

Messing around down at CrossFit Hollywood continuing to explore different styles of barbell movement.
The Russians and Zygmunt Smalcerz (USOTC resident coach) are teaching a straighter pull off the floor with horizontal movement being mitigated by the act of the hips coming in to make contact with the bar.
My technique with this style of pull is far from perfect, but I will continue to explore and report my findings.
