#GetTechnical // Weight Distribution During the Split Jerk

Posted on April 3, 2018April 3, 2018 Patrick CostelloPosted in GetTechnical, Olympic Weightlifting

#GetTechnical with your weight distribution in the split landing! In this case with our remote lifter, he is landing very heavily on the lead foot putting most of his body weight (and center of gravity) forward. Some common cues for the split jerk are “step through” or “step out” with the lead […]

Posted on March 30, 2018 Patrick CostelloPosted in GetTechnical, Olympic Weightlifting

#GetTechnical // Minimizing Movement and Solidifying the Pulls for Olympic Weightlifting

Posted on March 20, 2018March 21, 2018 Patrick CostelloPosted in GetTechnical, Olympic Weightlifting

In this case, we are getting some excessive movement during lift off due a delay in setting tight for the beginning of the lift. Before pulling the barbell off the ground, we must solidify the body to move as one unit. By engaging before liftoff, the lifter can: ✅Reduce any […]
