Tommy Kono talks quality over quantity. Focusing on each rep and how you can improve upon the next rep will move your performance along faster over treating weightlifting like a punch card at work and just clocking in the hours.

Hanging out at BodyTribe Fitness listening to Olympian Tommy Kono (one of the greatest weightlifters of all time) speak history, technique and his philosophy on weightlifting. My kinda Sunday.

Had the athletes of the @sanfranfire come through FuBarbell Saturday club to hang out. Met a lot of talented athletes throwing around some mighty impressive weights. Good times!

FuBarbell went down to train at Max’s Gym (@mxaita) this morning. Great sesh with @paddygriffin and the lifters of Max’s club (@joannaita7, @cindy5250). As always, so great to interact with Max and his athletes. It really brings the energy of the training session up and Max has a great perspective on approaching the lifts. Fun times.

Want to get better at lifting? Go train outside your comfort zone and listen to the perspectives of other coaches. Keep your mind open and your stomach full. #FuWisdom

Just got off Skype with Coach Wu (@wuchuanfu). Sounds like his seminars in London and Manchester are a big success! Here is one of the first videos Coach Wu sent me demonstrating “the effective use of strength” which is a literal translation of how Coach Wu perceives power transfer.

Today we deliver the second part to Lester Ho’s (@lesterhokw) talk on momentum. At the top of the week, Lester unveiled how to properly deliver momentum during the pull. Today, we will discuss why moving with accuracy is so important and how decisions made early in the pull will have consequences later on down that line.
