FuBarbell went down to train at Max’s Gym (@mxaita) this morning. Great sesh with @paddygriffin and the lifters of Max’s club (@joannaita7, @cindy5250). As always, so great to interact with Max and his athletes. It really brings the energy of the training session up and Max has a great perspective on approaching the lifts. Fun times.

Want to get better at lifting? Go train outside your comfort zone and listen to the perspectives of other coaches. Keep your mind open and your stomach full. #FuWisdom

Just got off Skype with Coach Wu (@wuchuanfu). Sounds like his seminars in London and Manchester are a big success! Here is one of the first videos Coach Wu sent me demonstrating “the effective use of strength” which is a literal translation of how Coach Wu perceives power transfer.

Today we deliver the second part to Lester Ho’s (@lesterhokw) talk on momentum. At the top of the week, Lester unveiled how to properly deliver momentum during the pull. Today, we will discuss why moving with accuracy is so important and how decisions made early in the pull will have consequences later on down that line.

Day 1 at The Athlete Lab is a wrap! Great foundations course today focusing on movement progressions and weightlifting theory. Everyone was extremely attentive to detail and it was great to see the lights go on. Looking forward to Day 2 tomorrow as we get laser focused on movement error identification and correction with the Level Up seminar!

Having difficulty staying patient over the bar? Not sure what that even feels like or need another way to develop that back strength? Check out this little nugget from Max Aita (@mxaita) of Max’s Gym: the straight/stiff-leg snatch.

Used as a complimentary component to a more robust weightlifting protocol, give this piece a try for a 3-4 week block starting at ~70% of your 1RM snatch for 4-5 sets of 2 and build up towards 80% (or above if your skill and strength allow).

FuBarbell coach + athlete Kristin Newman (@strength_geek) is not only a national level Olympic-style weightlifter, she also carries an elite total in powerlifting and is about to qualify for nationals in strongman. A modern day physical culturist, Kristin is here today with a post about the application of straps.

"You don’t want hand pain from over-use or torn callouses to get in the way of your training. That’s where straps come in.
