Do you hyper extend your spine in a start position from the floor or from hang? Be mindful of being in a more neutral position rather than hyper extended for back safety and injury prevention

Here’s a breakdown of how to do a push up correctly. - Push ups are an incredible muscle builder. However, unfortunately they tend to get half assed or just messed up. - Let me take you through each clip and give you tips on how to do push ups the right way: - Clip 1: My elbows are flared and it’s putting me in a detrimental position for shoulder health. Don’t listen to any bro scientists that say this helps target your chest. You can get plenty of chest activation and save your shoulders by keeping your elbows tucked under you. - Clip 2: My butt is sagging. When doing push ups you want to keep you body in a hollow position and your core tight. This means keeping your body in a straight line or your butt very slightly up in the air. - Clip 3: Like I said... people half ass push ups. Just a general rule for life, if something is quick and easy, it’s probably not going to do much. It should be obvious that floppin around like a fish and viciously humping the ground won’t build much muscle. - Clip 4: My elbows are tucked, my body is hollow, my reps are slow and controlled, and I’m doing a full range of motion. This ladies and gentleman, is a correct push up. ✅ - Tag your friend that needs to see this!

Snatch balance.. The purpose? To develop speed under the bar and to warm up and prepare for snatch exercises • If this is the purpose then move fast! • Watch my hands. I’m not even touching the bar to show it’s a drop and catch (don’t try it with hands off the bar though!)

When learning the clean, consider the following... ✅ the speed of the bar... controlled off the floor allowing time to maintain positions but explosive when the bar reaches mid thigh ✅ shoulder stay above the bar ✅ arms stay long and loose ✅ the angle of the back remains the same to mid thigh ✅ the bar stays around waist height ✅ full extension to dropping under needs to be fast • Comment below what you struggle with

❗️Movement highlight❗️⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Alternating hollow holds (like the above) are great for getting the hang of proper breathing technique for compound lifts like squats ‍♀️⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ The building blocks of fitness can be the difference between injury and success . The more I learn about form and technique the more I have to step back and re-train myself ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Ego comes into play a lot through out life and the gym, but we can’t let it hold us back from realizing we need to restart! Going back to the basics is just another great way to get stronger overall ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ Song: bury a friend -Billie Eilish

Consider the tempo of the lift when it gets heavy, the bar won’t come off the floor quickly so... on theblight weights we replicate the tempo of a lift on heavy weights. Going slowly for someone learning the movements gives time to think about key positions too • Always accelerate at mid thigh. This is where the power is generated

Snatch balance • The aim... to develop speed under the bar • Move fast then! • Drop and catch in to a solid receiving position

Should there be contact with the thigh area when snatching or cleaning? • YES... but how that is achieved is important • If you find this interesting, SAVE and give it a go

After a few requests, here is the 85kg snatch from last week and also in slow motion • I get asked frequently how can you develop speed under the bar. The coaching cue I give a lot of people is to keep the bar low. What I mean is, relax the arms, feel a stretch from the upper traps. The more you stretch, the more effective the legs can be. • ➡️ Notice the bar continues to rise after I drop underneath. I don’t wait at the top and pull the bloody thing! ➡️ See where I am in relation to the bar when the bar starts to drop. I’m already under. Lift the bar too high and you’ll end up riding it in ➡️ see my arms stay long and loose ➡️ the angle of my back remains constant from the floor to mid thigh ➡️ my legs do all the work off the floor hence you see my knees come back at the start • There are still things that can be improved in this lift but you get the idea of how to develop the speed under the bar and the kinds of things I focus on and coach to enable this to happen • Why not SAVE this video as something to refer to in the future and tag someone who may benefit from watching
