Raphael Dozzi of Max’s Gym (@mxaita) demonstrating a deficit snatch deadlift + snatch high pull (2 + 2). This exercise is used as a way to strengthen the back and learn how to elongate the pull. @nikita789 @polovnikov105 @oxanaslivenko @vladimir.safonov

Visily Polovnikov (@polovnikov105) clean pulling an “easy” 330kg to kick off the Russian WL seminar down at Catalyst Athletics. The seminar is now in full effect! It’s been a fun day of living, learning and watching Russian WL philosophy. Thank you Greg Everett and the Catalyst Athletics (@catalystathletics) team for hosting this weekend.

Lester Ho (@lesterhokw) is back with another lesson in biomechanics! This week we will touch upon bar speed and it’s role during application.

.

“Understanding bar velocity is not just knowledge on how fast the bar is moving once you initiate movement off the ground. It is also about when the maximum point of velocity is attained within your lift.

There’s still a few spots left for The Russian Weightlifting seminar at Catalyst Athletics in Sunnyvale, CA this upcoming weekend June 28th-29th! Come chill with me as we live, learn and watch some weightlifting this weekend at one of California’s premier weightlifting facilities. @oxanaslivenko @nikita789 @vladimir.safonov

Finally broke 200 on the clean Saturday thanks to the support during the seminar lunch break at Pennington CrossFit. Always appreciate the positive vibes and strong community atmosphere of all the boxes I visit.

Making the transition from the clean to the jerk is a skill that can leave athletes feeling a little clumsy and confused. If the readjustment isn’t made smoothly, valuable energy will be spent trying to rework the grip taking away effort the athlete would otherwise focus on putting into the jerk.
