#trainwithintention

Well this was fun. 10lb PR at 210lbs just cuz I wanted to test my strength from powerlifting. Took me a few reps to work out the kinks. There's a few kinks right now lol - The PR was not because of mad skill work or drilling technique but purely building my back and legs. - Exercises to do that: Clean pulls, deadlifts, box squat box jumps, single leg jumps, snatch high pulls, back extension, good mornings, speed deadlifts all have helped me maintain a better position in my first pull. - #GetStrong #TrainWithIntention #Red5

DO YOU START YOUR DEADLIFT BY POPPING YOUR HIPS UP? -Reading time: 2 mins- • Today I barely got up 275 and couldn't get 295 if my cereal depended on it. I talked to my PT/biomechanics coach and he gave me this drill (wait for the end). When you pop your hips up first rather than move the bar off the ground, all the stress moves from your power muscles to your upper back/arms. As you can see my arms are super flexed and my back is slightly rounded. - For the drill, bar is against the rack, toes are under the bar and you are lifting a couple inches off the ground while maintaining a proper back position. - Sometimes when hitting a plateau, ask yourself...am I starting the movement correctly? Is my muscle memory holding onto something it shouldn't be? Am I feeling it in the right places? You can retrain all of this will proper exercises and intentional training. - #BioMechanicsOverEverything #TrainWithIntention
