The ugly truth

Third post and already some ugly truths? I will translate the following common phrases,

Cleans are too risky = our coaches have no idea how to coach and teach these incredibly difficult exercises

Back squats are too risky = our coaches have no idea how to coach and teach these incredibly difficult exercises

Trap bar jump squat thingys are a great replacement for cleans = I look at Joe defrancos youtube page

Learning to walk before you can run

The use of elaborate monitoring systems and other sports technology  when the athletes cant do decent pushups chin ups squats and other fundamentals, what are you measuring the recovery of these athletes from?

The return

The return has come as I have some thoughts,  opinions,  harsh truths,  lessons, observations and maybe even some knowledge to share?? This blog may end up being a bit more serious and training related than the last attempts but dont worry I will include some hating.

Weightlifting training outside is the business. that is all

Squat
Lunge
Hinge
Jump
Push
Pull
Brace
Rotate
Single leg stability

If your missing any of these in your training regardless of sport you are an ass. Yes I have been an ass for the last 5 years.....

learning number 14

The ability to hinge is crucial and when you lose this ability you will break soon.
Strength hurts, speed kills but both together you can do some serious damage...... This holds true for all sports especially weightlifting
