Back to some basics today! It is my experience that most of the athletes coming to me for technique tune-ups have their grip in closer than where I’d like to see them. This is understandable because the closer grip is a stronger grip and feels more stable overhead.

If performance is your aim, however, then having the grip positioned so the bar can hang at the proper level will allow for quicker transitions and better leveraging.

It’s going to be all about movement efficiency and timing in transition. Keep these pointers in mind for better efficiency to carry you through the WOD:
