The quad squad. #FuBarbell #TorranceCrossFit #ChuanfuTraining @wuchuanfu @jamiejoyce2
Week 6 of practicing the lat sweep + quad punch. The positions and movement are becoming more natural allowing the speed to progress naturally. I missed this power clean at 83kg/183lbs, but I am pretty pleased with the way the coordination of the lift is coming together under this new technique.

Recent fascination with the Chinese fast pulls (aka panda pulls) has all the kids trying this new move out on the dance floor. I know because I’ve been getting tagged in a lot of the posts.
The Chinese use this exercise to time the extension; and for them, is the closest move that mimicks the actual lifts.
Here are a few things to keep in mind should you choose to give this movement a whirl:
.
1. Keep the bar close. You should have the feeling that you are able to just snatch/clean the lift after the extension.
Some coaches like to get their athletes out on a platform right away while others prefer to spend some time getting their athletes up to speed before adding in the pressure of a competition.
Regardless of which camp you fall into, competing places you in a position to discover your potential. This altered state is hard to recreate during day-to-day training in the gym.
My buddy Matt tossing a giant caber at his last Highland games competition. So very honored he was reppin’ the #FuBarbell love. Definitely one of the coolest things done while wearing the FuBarbell tee AND in matching pink socks with a kilt. Legitsville.
Did a quick little photo shoot with the fellas @codyapp early this morning before heading back to San Francisco. Fun way to wrap up my weekend in Seattle!

Seattle is a wrap! Another fun day with another fun crew. It’s been great going around getting athletes to open up their minds about movement and start thinking about weightlifting in a different light. Thank you to everyone who attended today and for sharing this experience with me!

Coach Wu (@wuchuanfu) asks the seminar participants a question, “Of the two movements I just did, which one do you think is faster and why?” @iamjwjw
