exercise technique

Safety considered, there is value to making yourself move in simple conditioning drills.

Power and position govern weight- If we lose our strong hinge, back rounds, or legs fail to snap straight in the “drive” portion of the movement, adjust accordingly and continue safely.

If sets require interruption at chosen weight, make as minor an adjustment as needed and complete the next uninterrupted.

Choices today are: Kettlebell snatch (from floor), dumbbell power snatch, kettlebell clean + press/ push press.

We do some intense mace work today and we're loving every minute.

Stand strong and organized- tension helps build strength, provided we stay engaged in the process.

Position and range of motion dictate weight- If chosen weight breaks either, adjust immediately and continue safely.

If sets require interruption, make as minor an adjustment as needed and complete the next uninterrupted.

Rest as needed between sets and movements, and adjust weight/ tension immediately if position breaks.

Mind your posture, don’t soften up, and work hard- it doesn’t have to be fast, but it shouldn’t be lazy.

No rest. No lazy movement.

Stand strong and organized- tension helps build strength, provided we stay engaged in the process.

Hustle, stay engaged, and work hard in this simple conditioning; You’ll get out exactly what you put in.

Pace is not a substitute for position, even in simple movements.

Hustle in transitions, never abandon mechanics and attempt little-to-no rest.

Your legs are going to feel something today. Up to you if it's something good or something bad.

Never make the mental mistake of thinking you’re too advanced for skill work in any realm.
