One of Prof. Edison Carriel’s junior girls (17 y.o.) demonstrating good use of her legs while snatching an easy 75kg/165lbs off the blocks. Note that the knee position isn’t fully vertical to allow a continuous push through the floor and a synergistic use of hamstrings, hips and quads. This young lady lifts out of the Olympic training center in Guayaquil, Ecuador.

Hey everyone, my friends down at @barbellshruggedpodcast have done it again! The crowd has spoken and they have listened. To supplement the awesome weekly podcast these guys put out, welcome to the new Barbell Daily where you can get your daily fix of information!
Hanging out at @kallpacrossfit back in April of this year. Profe. Edison Carriel, head coach of the weightlifting federation in Guayaquil, Ecuador, brought some of the junior boys down to play.

Got to hang out at CrossFit 1836 (@crossfit1836). Fun day today teaching, talking and applying weightlifting concepts. Watching light bulbs go off as people dial into their movement is what motivates me the most during these seminars. Thanks everyone for coming out from all the different areas, and I’ll see you again Texas!!

Want to know how you recruit your body? Perform the lift as slowly as you can and your technique will express itself.
Doing some slo-Mo lifting for a photo shoot couple weeks ago with CodyApp (@codyapp).

OTC resident coach, Zygmunt Smalcerz, teaching an “elbow out” position during the first pull of the lift. Keeping the elbows pointed out to the sides will:
.
1. Increase engagement and activation of the lats.
2. Keep the bar close to the body during the pull under (3rd pull) phase of the lift.
3. Allow the arms to stay more relaxed.

Scrolling through some footage from my trip this Spring to Ecuador where I got to hang out with some of the junior women at the Olympic training hall in Guayaquil. The hall was packed with roughly 20-30 girls that cycled through that afternoon and into the evening. I was told that weightlifting was typically a sport engaged by youth from less affluent portions of town. The youngest girl that came through there was 8 while the oldest was 17.
Feels great to be able to “get after” some weight again. Now that this new technique is feeling more natural, the brain can shut off letting the body “just go”.
Finishing off this snatch session with an easy peasy 67kg/147lbs double off the blocks. Few more weeks off the blocks and time to start taking this off the floor.
