The eyes help set the proprioception for the rest of the body. In other words, wherever you look, your body will tend to motion in that direction. This is largely a reason why weightlifters look directly ahead to the horizon when lifting.

I actually like having athletes look higher than the horizon level to help rotate the body more upright in the receiving position.

Getting some practice in during lunch yesterday. Blocks take a bit of effort to set-up at my box so it was a nice treat to have them already out and ready to go.

The vibe today at V CrossFit was on point!! Some great lifting coming out of the attendees. LA is always a fun trip for me.

One of the things I’m very cautious of when having athletes perform lifts or pulls from the blocks is how they’re initiating the movement. If attention isn’t paid, we’ll see the athletes throw the shoulders and get behind the bar far too early. They might even make the lift, but this doesn’t really mimic how they would pull from the floor thus losing the transferability.

Weightlifting gnome wants to know if you’re setting aside some time to practice your Olympic lifts today?!
