The goal of the starting position is to get the body + barbell (WL system) into a good second pull position above the knee. We’ve all heard this many times before but how to customize this for each athlete is less often discussed.
The basic framework to set an athlete up is:
.
1. Line the barbell roughly mid to front of the foot.
2. Have the hips at or above the level of the knees.
3. Place the shoulders on top to slightly over the bar.
REPOST FROM @wilfleming: “Starting to crank it up in training as I prepare for #usaw nationals. Today I worked up to 3 doubles at 115kg 3 singles at 125kg and then finished the day with a rep at 135 kg. thanks to the guys at #crossfitlakeeffect for letting me come train.”
