One of the things I’m very cautious of when having athletes perform lifts or pulls from the blocks is how they’re initiating the movement. If attention isn’t paid, we’ll see the athletes throw the shoulders and get behind the bar far too early. They might even make the lift, but this doesn’t really mimic how they would pull from the floor thus losing the transferability.

Weightlifting gnome wants to know if you’re setting aside some time to practice your Olympic lifts today?!

Comparison of 4 different snatch set-ups.

Good set-ups are ones that allow the bar to (most naturally as the athlete stands) come sweeping in towards and then up the body bringing the barbell over the back half of the foot.

A few days ago, I posted a photo comparison of 4 different clean set-ups. The question that punched through consistently was, “which one is the best?” My answer to that is all of them and none of them. One mold will not fit all, and a better question posed by friend, @wilfleming, was “what are the commonalities you see?”

How really strong ballerinas warm-up for their…
