Aleksey (@torokhtiy) came by earlier this week to hang out and do some training. Being able to watch the best of our world up front and personal truly allows you to appreciate the details of good technique. Today, we give you a little insight on how to get closer to unlocking your weightlifting greatness.

The Jerk Receiving Position.

The way you receive your jerk is directly related to the way you dip. Having a good dip position and transferring that into your jerk receiving position will determine the stability you will achieve overhead.

Hanging out with my good friend @roopsihota today assisting him the Movement & Mobility (@mobilitywod) seminar up in Reno, NV.

The hips are a powerful generator when it comes to force production, but that by itself will not be enough to deliver the power in the right direction. For the productive application of force, learning how to pair the knees with the hips will get the bar moving up so you can get yourself moving down.

By @lesterhokw:

Producing Vertical Force.

It is definitely not wrong to say that the hips are producing force in the second pull. However, this extension of the hips is often mistaken as the sole proponent of increasing velocity of the bar.

Congratulations to the most awesome chiro @drtremaynedc on welcoming his newest love Nova James Davis-Tremayne into this world ❤️

A couple weeks ago, we broke down the movements of a couple world class lifters. Today, Lester Ho (@lesterhokw) is here to discuss how to analyze body positions and movement in relation to the data provided by these charts.

Understanding Iron Path.

Apps like Iron Path are wonderful tools for a coach to do simple biomechanical anaylses for the lifts.

However, there needs to be a proper understanding of what the app provides in terms of information.
