The “Bottom-Up” set-up.

This technique in establishing starting position allows the athlete to utilize the barbell as leverage to wind the back up — generating tension, removing slack, and allowing the lifter to set the shoulders into a good position before taking off.

Think of a number of where you feel that your lift starts to breakdown. If you’ve any spent time diagnosing your own movement, then you probably also have a pretty good idea what happens — you come onto your toes, bar swings way out, jumping forward to catch the bar. Most athletes that come to me are also pretty savvy that way.

It’s Sunday; and while others like to do brunch, the ladies of #FuBarbell like to get together and #squat!

Kelly Starrett sequence of a 134kg/295lbs power clean. Kelly uses a mixed grip cleaning and racking technique due to an old wrist injury. Epic.

For many of us veterans in the CrossFit scene, we’ve danced this dance before with 12.4. This week’s open cleverly combines two classic CrossFit benchmark WODs Karen and 30 muscle-ups. If this wasn’t bad enough, to bridge the gap between the two efforts are 90 double-unders.
