| COACHING CUE | . “Perfectly balanced” - picked up from @usa_weightlifting . When? For clean set up . What does this mean? Thanos was right. “Perfectly balanced, as all things should be.” . @usa_weightlifting posted a great reminder, recently. . “Hip should be higher than the knee, . shoulders should be higher than the hips. . As a guide, your shoulder should be directly above or slightly in front of the bar. . Do not sit behind the bar or way over the bar.” . I hope you found this valuable.

| COACHING CUE | . “Push the earth away” - Same cue, new day, new way to see it! . Julien Bickel @saftigesj had a brilliant idea for a different way to illustrate this cue. I hope you guys find this useful. . When? Deadlifting . What does the mean? “A great cue from Dan John that always stuck with me was to ‘Push your heels to China. If you live in China, then push them to Utah!’ . Pushing your heels through the ground delivers a much better start to the deadlift, whereas a ‘yanker’ will often use too much lower back to finish the pull.” - Jonn Gaglione @gaglionestrength in his article “5 Tips to Dominate the Deadlift” on the @testosteronenation website .

| COACHING CUE | . “Foot is a bumper plate” - picked up from Oleksiy Torokhtiy @torokhtiy . When? Foot position when landing during the catch . What does this mean? When we land with a full foot, the catch is stable from the ground up - similar to a bumper plate that hits the floor flat. . When we land toes or heels first, this leads to instability from the ground up - similar to a bumper plate that hits the floor on its edge. . I hope you found this valuable.

#FBF #flashbackfriday . | COACHING CUE | . “Patience” . When? Throughout the second pull of the clean or snatch . What does this mean? “The most common fault we see is that the ‘pull’ is taking place before the hips extend. Knowing this, the best cue in Olympic weightlifting is PATIENCE!”
. “We must wait for the legs to push into the floor and the hips to violently extend before we begin to pull on the bar.” - Bryce Smith @therealbrycesmith in “Patience in Olympic Weightlifting” on the @crossfitinvictus website. .

| COACHING PERSPECTIVE | . “I used to spend a lot of energy trying to get further. I now spend a lot of energy trying to get better. . Progress is a trajectory, not just a destination.” - Web Smith @websmith . Web’s words speak truth in nearly every aspect of life. This perspective may help you communicate to your athlete(s) the importance of appreciating the journey. . I hope you found this valuable. If so, #repost or tag someone who needs to see it.

| COACHING PERSPECTIVE | . “One at a time” - when giving cues . Verbal cues, especially when short, specific, and actionable, can be extremely effective when communicating movement. . I encourage you to focus on one at a time, especially when working with novice movers. . Similar to the triage concept mentioned by Pat Sherwood @sherwood215, focus on the area that needs the most attention and work from there. . “I need to choose to ignore some things so that I can focus my attention on the largest part of that triage concept happens to be. . Selective ignoring is one of the points where I see ineffective coaching the most. People try to look at too many faults at one time and they get overwhelmed and they miss everything.” - Pat Sherwood @sherwood215 CFL4 coach for crossfitlinchpin .

#FBF #flashbackfriday ,. | COACHING PERSPECTIVE | . “When training gets tough, focus on the investment.” . It’s easy to lose focus when: - You’re out of breath - distraction - Your muscles are sore - distraction - The weight feels heavier than it is - distraction . Instead, shift your focus on: - Why you showed up. - Where this hard work is taking you. - How you’ll feel once you’ve accomplished your goal. . I hope you found this valuable.

| COACHING EDUCATION | . “The REVISED Theoretical Hierarchy of the Development of the Athlete” . Great discussion in the comments today and some very thoughtful perspectives shared. Based on that, I just wanted to propose this updated hierarchy. . Is this more accurate than Glassman’s original concept? What are your thoughts? . “The Theoretical Hierarchy of the Development of the Athlete” . “This hierarchy largely reflects foundational dependence, skill, and to some degree, time ordering of development. . The logical flow is from molecular foundations to cardiovascular sufficiency, body control, external object control, and ultimately mastery and application. . This model has greatest utility in analyzing athletes’ shortcomings or difficulties. . We do not deliberately order these components but nature will. If you have a deficiency at any level of ‘the pyramid’ the components above will suffer.” - Greg Glassman in “What is Fitness?” found in the CrossFit Level 1 Training Guide p. 29 .
