There are so many variations to this drill but this does wonders for so many things.

Improves hip strength and work capacity, rhythmic timing and coordination, low level plyo and ankle stiffness.
it's a little bit of fun as well as usual they make it competitive.

2 rounds is enough

Take part in poll be interesting to see perspectives

Who did it better order of appearance 1st to 3rd video

First session at MDX Weightlifting Club tomorrow and it's been a minute since I've thrown anything around with any intent.

This is just a few drills & skills I threw together so I'm not completely rusty.

Warm up was clean & Jerk based and the second video was a complex based around speed under the bar.

After running a 200m personal best 25.12 & National standard for English Schools there was a little disappointment at having to pull out due to a niggling hip injury.

But after a month out we had our First block session building some load and confidence into pushing out safe to say in the second video Maya was a little keen to go 😂.

Hoping to finish the season with a sub 25 clocking.

What's for you won't pass you by.

Lifting heavy s**t

Sometimes lifting the heavy stuff is just what's needed

Well this came out of no where.

Not trained in 2 weeks and haven't lifted this heavy in months but here we are my very first 100kg block clean, in fact first 100kg of any clean variation of any kind.

I have attempted this 5 times before this 1 in this post over the last 6 years and dropped it 5 times. Mental block getting under a bar and getting in my own way.

Very happy with this and all while sitting at 69kg bodyweight.

Where the # # # # did that come from

What do you do between sessions to aid recovery or to improve movement for future sessions.

2 little sample videos to help get you on your way.

Some of this week's work and clients making progress on mental blocks seemed to have a hold until now.
