Lester Ho (@lesterhokw) is back with another lesson in biomechanics! This week we will touch upon bar speed and it’s role during application.

.

“Understanding bar velocity is not just knowledge on how fast the bar is moving once you initiate movement off the ground. It is also about when the maximum point of velocity is attained within your lift.

Finally broke 200 on the clean Saturday thanks to the support during the seminar lunch break at Pennington CrossFit. Always appreciate the positive vibes and strong community atmosphere of all the boxes I visit.

Making the transition from the clean to the jerk is a skill that can leave athletes feeling a little clumsy and confused. If the readjustment isn’t made smoothly, valuable energy will be spent trying to rework the grip taking away effort the athlete would otherwise focus on putting into the jerk.

#Animation Wednesday! It’s been almost 5 months since I’ve started learning about Chinese weightlifting philosophy from Coach Wu (@wuchuanfu). He’s currently the Singaporean weightlifting federation team coach, but came up professionally in the Chinese weightlifting system.

There is this weird myth out there that #OlympicStyleWeightlifting (OSWL) is hard to learn. It really isn’t THAT hard. I see people come into our Introduction to #CrosSFit Basics workshops all the time, learn the #snatch and #clean&jerk along with various other skills inside an hour and start lifting within that same session. However, if we take that thought one step further, I would say #OSWL is rather difficult to master.
