Technical perfection: Scott Forsyth ➡️Pushes back off chest immediately decreasing moment arm at shoulder ➡️Keeps chest high to minimize distance and avoid bad positioning ➡️Horizontal leg drive helps to launch the bar back towards the shoulders & avoids butt coming up.

19-yr difference! On the right, at one of my WPO Championships 2005 I believe and all I thought about was dominating my sport. On the left, earlier this year where all I think about is the little girl holding my hand, her siblings, God, & my wife. Totally different humans.

Is expressing power with exercises like Olympic lifts (or derivatives right Suchomel) the best way to build power output? That’s the goal of this thread.

First, what is power? It’s actually force x velocity. Verkhoshansky said that Weightlifters defied the force-velocity relationship with their expressions of power.

The principle of specificity says that strength is specific in transfer. Therefore; it’s important to express maximum power while training.

How much of each depends on the individual, but you can read all about it on my article for GymAware : gymaware.com/improving-powe…

Verkhoshansky believed that Weightlifters defied the relationship between force and velocity. Without a doubt, if power is your desired adaptation, Olympic weightlifting or their derivatives should be a part of your training arsenal. Tim Suchomel has compelling evidence everyone

Last thing for this morning, if coaches understood the principle of specificity just a bit better, a lot of mistakes would disappear. That's coming next from my series with GymAware

I’m doing a Q&A today starting at 6p EST. What are your questions? This is part of my education initiative alongside the best partner out there GymAware #strengthandconditioning
