Coach Wu (@wuchuanfu) has officially landed in LA! I’m on my way down to meet up with him now. This is going to be a great week for everyone involved. But without further ado, here’s the last piece of the Chinese methodology Back Squat series by Jonathan Wong (@iamjwjw).

Tempo:

.

The tempo (or movement rhythm) which an individual performs the Back Squat is critical to skill and strength transfer to the Snatch and Clean & Jerk.

Week 4 of practicing the lat sweep + quad extension. The coordination of the two is coming along quite nicely. This is 73kg from the blocks which would be a PR for me. The timing of the lift still needs to be better to make the extension smoother, but I’ll take this for now.

Just spent the morning with Dave “the God Father” Spitz and @kellystarrett at CalStrength (@cal_strength) this morning for their team morning session practice. Dave’s a wizard when it comes to engineering a plan of attack for his team.

Do you know how to leverage your body? Or, in other words, which style of pull is better suited for you? Before we begin to explore these topics on a deeper level, Lester Ho (@lesterhokw) is here to lay a foundation and plant those seeds of thought.

“SAME LEVERS, DIFFERENT PULL

.

Levers determine how the weighted develops force and moves around the bar in the most efficient and effective manner. Understanding the length of your levers and how they relate to each other is as important as understanding how to use them.

Coach Wu (@wuchuanfu) working up to 107kg for a triple in 15min during his seminar in Malaysia. Even with little time to train these days, Coach Wu has motor patterns that are deeply practiced and understands how to use his body efficiently.

Coach Wu will be in the states this Friday. Looking forward to hanging out with him and continuing to learn about Chinese weightlifting methodologies in person. Last chance to sign up for Coach Wu’s seminars in LA (@torrancecrossfit, @danielsan, @jamiejoyce2) and SF (@unitedbarbell, @jwerba, @verymiao).

With a box name like CrossFit Love (@crossfitlovephilly), the day was destined to be great. NYC and Philly are a wrap! Great to meet all the athletes today and expose them to some new movement concepts.

I ❤️ NYC! Day one at @crossfitconcretejungle complete! This is one of the best groups that I’ve taught. They moved well, asked great questions, and were so much fun to be around that it made the day go by so fast! On my way to Philly for day two tomorrow. CrossFit Love, here I come! @crossfitlovephilly
