Sunday morning repost from one of our lifters @avina86. He spotted @kendrickjfarris and I scheming it up and jumped in for a little photo op! Thank you for making me look incredibly #jacked. My shoulders look like they’ve got their own set of shoulders.

Final day down at The 2013 Reebok CrossFit Games. Stoked to see who’s going to be crowned Fittest Man and Woman on Earth!

Hanging out at Waxman’s Gym lifting AND watching the ladies get after the Clean&Jerk ladder for the 2013 Reebok CrossFit Games. This is what we call having the best of both worlds. #Winning

When you snatch or clean do you ever:

1. Wonder why the bar is so far away from your body?

2. Wonder how to bring the bar into your hips?

3. Catch/lose the bar out front?

If you said yes to any of the above, you could be at fault of not sweeping/shifting the bar in towards the body.

To remedy this, proper use of the lats as the mechanism for pushing the bar into the body must be employed.

Hanging out at the #SanFranciscoCrosSFit Movement and Mobility Seminar with the one and only Kelly Starrett. I’ve attended over a dozen of these seminars with Kelly and his talks just get better every time and the jokes get funnier too.

Keeping the shoulders in line with the hips and over the heels allows for a more powerful drive up against the bar and a more efficient bar trajectory. Stay stacked.
