CFSCTysonSnatch Tyson in great snatch set up

When setting up for a snatch we are looking for a straight line from head to tail with the shoulders slightly in front of the bar and weight distributed evenly throughout the foot. When the bar leaves the ground it should travel backwards a little bit. Tyson could make a slight change in his shoulder position by torquing out his elbows, spinning the shoulder back a bit and turning on the upper back and lats. That will make him have faster turn over and help to make sure he does not receive the bar forward.

The Brothers

IMG_9003Josh and Leo doing some work

One of the greatest joys as a coach is watching your athletes surpass your expectations and surprise you with their ability. Josh and Leo continue to impress me with their rapid improvement, willingness to try new things, and attention to detail. These boys will go far in CrossFit and in life due to their work ethic, talent and mental fortitude.

Tight like a Tiger

IMG_8910 Chris with great overhead position.

Great overhead position will have the shoulder blades retracted and the load sitting right over the middle of the spine. Chris shows us where the bar should sit over the middle of the foot, shoulder blades engaged, head through, ribs down and butt squeezed.
