Take a look at the posture and the position of his knees. This is good form.
Take a look at how far forward she is leaning. Also, notice her knees coming in.

For the SWOD make sure that you warm up with good technique. Find that "sweet spot" where the bar is locked out overhead ,with active shoulders, and tight core. Making sure that you are not leaning forward as shown in the second picture. The bar should never be over your back with your shoulders in front of the bar. Also, keeping in mind that you need to pull your knees out. This will keep you stable in the hole and give you a stronger push out of it. Not to mention, it will avoid knee injuries.

Best part was when Craig, dressed in all dark clothes with a baseball cap jumped out from the bushes. Didn't know my heart rate could jump any higher!
Ya sorry about that Holly. I slowed down so I wouldn't do that to Jen, didn't realize you were right around the corner!
ReplyDeleteI would like to say that I didn't go today because I am still recovering but that's so not true...I slept in this morning and then decided not to go tonight because it was a running metcon! I usually like the WOD's with running , but it's way too cold for me! So, I'm totally guilty of cherry picking ;)
