HOW I WENT FROM THAT TO THIS. MY NUMBER ONE TIP!

[Music] so we're here at the gym that I actually did the road invitational out on the weekend and so it's called cough killer athletics and it's a gym that's about 20 minutes away from my house in the next town over today on the agenda we're going to be doing some overhead squats and snatch balances some strict press and then an odd and even alternate minute of some bomb-ass slaps push presses and just some kind of skill work under a little bit of fatigue and getting that heart rate up so today we're really focusing on more strength specific movements and a lot of overhead specific movements as well one of the reasons why I actually chose the invitational here was simply because at the time when we were organizing where to do it and where to send me like that we realized that CrossFit mayhem wasn't available so we looked around at places in Nashville I looked around places in the Cookeville area as well and Chris the owner of this gym said that it was okay if I come down one of the afternoons and check it all out and as soon as I seen it it kind of ticked all the boxes for me and and now so welcoming and so culminating with everything that I needed that I felt like it was a no-brainer and I'm so pleased and proud to have been able to do it here and also get to know their community a lot of the members that come here are just so so nice and really supportive and it just gave me a lot of reassurance that when I stepped out of where I normally train and my home gym that you know still looked after so I'm going to be doing some sad challenges I personally think that most balanced very important and why I'd add is because when it comes to the snatch the herbage what you're wanting to have that speed under the bar and have a really nice solid lock out in the overhead position and so by doing snatch balances that allows you to fill that positioning and get that speed and the timing very precise so that when it comes and refers over to your actual snatches your you're going to be catching in a much solid position when it does get heavier you revert to a good technique because you've practiced those movements and so that's why it's so important and today I'm not so much focusing on the weight and I'm focusing on technique I'm focusing on the speed and the lock out of my elbows but as the cycle gets into into the eight-week period leading into a competition the heavy roll goes the more snappier I'll be because I've been practicing good movement patterns so it's so important to drop the weight back in focus on technique and I can't stress this enough because if you look back on some I did when I first started learning the movements even I could have got caught up in the moment sometimes and was adding too much weight and I have to stop myself and take the weight off and really hone in on the movement and technique of the the actual lifts so that it didn't take me too long to progress and obviously the better you get at technique the better and and the stronger you become at that particular movement and the heavier you can go so you know you all have to start somewhere but it's very important to just dial it back a little bit and that quote that people hear sometimes you have to take a step back in order to take two steps forward I truly believe that that is something that relates so well to weightlifting and to CrossFit movement [Music] all right so let's get into those shows reminisce nice wheels bro place and so's didn't even [Music] Chea Claire's middle name great question I've got a great answer she has none she
