Where are you looking when you’re setting up for your lift? Down, to the side, or maybe you just don’t know?

The eyes guide proprioception for the rest of the body. Look down and you’ll go down. Look up and suddenly your trunk is a little bit taller waiting to receive the bar overhead or on your shoulders.

Try this on for size the next time you lift: Perform one lift looking down 6ft in front of you. Then, try one lift looking at a fixed point a distance away above the horizon level. Which felt better?

Throwback Thursday (#tbt) It all started in parking lot. Under a canopy. By some dumpsters. And, we all looked a little younger.

Recovery on the snatch requires the athlete to maintain a rigid trunk as the legs work to elevate system.

Lack of adequate strength in trunk to secure the bar overhead can express itself as the lifter getting pinned in the hole, the trunk tilting off axis to the shoulders during recovery, and/or instability during recovery resulting in potential loss of the load (usually forward). #FuBarbell #weightlifting #crossfit #crossfitgirls #Oly #Olympic #Olympicweightlifting #usaw #snatch #clean #cleanandjerk #technique #inspiration #motivation #instagramfitness #fitspo #dianefu

A strong position for stacking load overhead. Calen Hall - 77kg lifter - chasing down the 100kg snatch.

The trunk is your transmission of power from your legs and hips to the bar. No matter how strong your legs become, if your trunk can’t support the force, you’ll always fall short of your potential. What have you done for midline lately?

If you told me 10 years ago that I’d be coaching a world champion rower (@julietstarrett), a 2 time Olympic gold medalist (@ecaf22), and a legit Dr of psychology all in 1 session, I wouldn’t have believed you. These women are badass, and I am honored each week to help make the best in the world better.
