Hookgrip, how and why you should be doing it! Hook grip is a vital component for the Snatch and Clean as this is a strong grip which will help maintain control of heavy weights! Check the video out to see how to use hook grip, and give it a go in your next weightlifting session 🏋🏽‍♀️

Not posted any of my own training for a while 😅 got back into some deadlifts over the last few weeks. Looking to keep pushing this to see how close I can get to 250 again 🙏🏋🏽‍♀️

Using the blocks for Snatches and Cleans can serve a number of purposes depending on the goal looking to be achieved. Using the blocks will force the athlete to accelerate harder due to the bar starting in a dead state. Because of this it will also help the athlete to train and improve the force generated in certain phases of the movement. Furthermore, with the bar starting in a dead stop position it will also positively impact on finding the correct positions for the movements 💯 More info?

🏋🏽‍♀️ WINDMILLS 🏋🏽‍♀️ Windmills are a great supplementary movement to add into any program as they have multiple benefits which can improve your Weightlifting performance such as….. 🔥Improves hip function (better ROM) 🔥Improves Thoracic extension 🔥Improves shoulder stability over head 🔥improves shoulder strength across varying ranges of movement 🔥strengthens obliques to resist spinal flexion/ extension and lateral flexion What’s not to like 💯🤷🏻 More info? Drop me message 🙌🏽

Coaching athlete @jhenny_coffee_lover with a nice little PB in this afternoons sessions. All the work on correcting phases of the lift are paying off 🙌🏽. Well done!!

3 reason to start adding in hang snatch/ hang cleans into your next training cycle! Check out my top 3 reasons as to why these will benefit your weightlifting 🏋🏽‍♀️

OLDIE BUT A GOLDIE 🏋🏽‍♀️ Over and backs or otherwise known as shoulder pass throughs is a great movement to incorporate into warm ups to loosen and stretch off the muscles around the shoulders. “Before we develop strength to support heavy weights over head, we must first develop flexibility at the shoulder girdle to prevent strain and damage to this area - Tommy Kono. To perform this movement, first grasp the dowel at either end with arms locked out and the dowel resting roughly against the thighs. Slowly raise the dowel up and over head maintaining arms locked out, repeat this several times. 🤙🏽

EMOM training building towards 90% Built to 121 C&J. Looking forward to the start of the next cycle next week! Very much looking forward to getting under heavier bars and most importantly more rest between sets 😂🏋🏽‍♀️

Hang Snatch + Snatch x2 Watching this back thinking why am I catching all these as power Snatches 🤷🏻 I better be rewarded with a PB next month 🙏💯

BARBELL TRAJECTORY 🏋🏽‍♀️ The path the bar travels from the start position to the receive position. This is a great area to analyse as this can massively impact the efficiency of the Snatch and Clean. Check out the Barbell Trajectory Blog in my bio for more information on the types and the style which we should look to follow 🔥 #weightliftingtechnique #weightliftingcoach #technicalmastery

DROP SNATCH OR SNATCH BALANCE? 2 movements which commonly get referred to as the same exercise, but in fact both are completely individual and aim to improve different areas of the Snatch. DROP SNATCH ✅Improve speed under the bar ✅Builds stability in the receive position ✅Teaches correct body alignment SNATCH BALANCE ✅Confidence dropping under heavy weight ✅Improve over head strength ✅Build proprioception and awareness Make sure to like & Save 🏋🏽‍♀️

Some more PB’s hit by @gym.n.gin 🏋🏽‍♀️💯 . Back to training, we know what we need to do! Looking forward to the progress over this next cycle 🔥

Not at the strongest point I’ve been, but I’m back enjoying training and eager to progress on! Let’s get ready for another good week of training 🏋🏽‍♀️ . #weightlifting #coaching #onlinetraining #weightliftingcoach #westmidlands

Shoutout to @leo_tayl0r who started Weightlifting during lockdown. We have so far nailed the basics of the Snatch and Clean & Jerk during this time and have progressed towards the full movements since we have been back in the gym. Big things to come from this guy once we have sharpened up the movements, before we see what he is really capable of! . . . #learntolift #weightlifting #weightliftingcoach #strengthsport #strengthtraining

What’s the point in jump training? Why should we implement jump training into our workouts? These are some of the questions I hear so much! Here are 3 reasons why! . 1.Ability to absorb force more optimally 2.Improve speed power in strength movements 3.Dramatically improve power production . Read my full blog on jump training, and how you can start to implement it into your training by checking out the link in my bio . #strengthtraining #jumptraining #athleticperformance #sportsperformance

🏋🏽‍♀️FINDING YOUR START POSITION🏋🏽‍♀️ Here is a quick drill you can use to find your most strongest start position! Make sure we begin each jump with our hands on our hips, and each jump change the position of the feet until you find a position where you feel most powerful!

The depth jump and drop jump are both movements which utilise a fast stretch shortening cycle (plyometric) which involves a very short ground contact time (+/- 0.25 seconds) between the violent landing from the box prior to the initiation of the rebound jump. With that being said, these jumps are commonly confused as the same jump however there are some distinct differences. . The drop jump is performed using a lower box (around 20-60cm). By using a lower box there is slightly less force absorbed during the landing phase, meaning a shorter ground reaction time. The aim of the drop jump is to maximise the stretch reflex potential during movements with minimal ground reaction time. . The depth jump however is performed using a higher box (75cm+). Due to using a higher box, this creates larger forces to be absorbed during the landing phase which will result in longer ground reactions. The aim of the depth jump is to develop explosive power which could transfer over to slow stretch shortening cycles in other sports performance movements. .
