**Midweek slowdown for some double strength work. Focusing on snatches today with an emphasis on technique. If you find that you’re not keeping the bar close to the body and it’s making a big arc like with a kettlebell swing, either lower the weight or hang out there for a bit until you can get the pull right. Having to duck your head under the bar or you’re having to press it out, take a look at this article and work with your coach on ways to fix it.
Some people might be intimidated by overhead squats, so spend that time working on mobility – ankles, hips, thoracic spine, lats, wrists. There is no shame in using a PVC pipe or empty barbell. Work on it daily and you’ll start to see small improvements. And small improvements are still improvements! These are the days you WANT to show up!
