There’s technique to missing weight that can be overlooked by new weightlifters entering the scene — such as missing a weight behind. Having the grip wide enough to allow a successful pass behind your body ensures that if that bar is going too far back that you can safely eject out front. Believe it or not, most new lifters are afraid or won’t miss behind the body due to the uncertainty of what or how it might happen.

Throwback Thursday (#tbt): One of my favorite candid shots from FuBarbell’s first photo shoot.

The power position occurs after the readjustment phase in the knees placing the lifter in an optimal position to deliver power to the bar. Having the heels grounded at this point aides in both power production and proper bar trajectory.
