CrossFit Wig Wag – Weightlifting
Weightlifting
Our first deload of this Olympic Cycle. This week we will focus on skills and positions when it comes to our Olympic lifts. After breaking down everyones lifts I think we all can agree our weaknesses our in our first pull off the ground, too many of our hips are rising first. Then a lot of us are not pulling high on the bar, remember we want our elbows high and outside when pulling on the bar at the appropriate time. We also need to bring our hips to the bar, too many of us are pulling that bar into our hips; be patient and bring that bring your hips to the bar. As far as our Jerks, we need to bring the hips straight down on the dip; quite a few of us are pushing our hips back on the dip.
With that being said we will be focusing all of this.

*Point of this complex is to be in the correct position as you come from the ground. So after every snatch drop the bar and move on the the next snatch.
