  2. She has her shoulders over the dumbbell when she starts which is much more stable for the back. Where he is straight up and down.

  3. His base and set up is off from the start of the lift. He drives off his toes which completely throws off the stability of the lift as well as his lumbar spine is rounded forward from the beginning.

    She keeps a solid position throughout the lift, maintaining weight in the heels, keeping that chest up, and core tight.

    Need to continue to work on my OHS. Core stability seems to be my biggest issue with them. But i'm excited to have finally developed the shoulder flexibility for them!

    I am so weak at OHS and fairly strong at power clean but I stayed light and made up time there.

    Thanks Tanya for the tip on rolling the lats... Definitely felt a difference.

    Next time I'll use #45 but still got a good lung burn. Liked this one!

    Welcome back Wagners! We missed you!

    Quads were screaming even before I walked in today. After deadlifts on Monday, lateral jumps on Tuesday, and wall balls yesterday, doing OHS just added more awesome-ness to my posterior chain!

    Frank nailed the coaches corner; weak set up leads to loss of lumbar and driving from toes.

  9. I don't disagree with the other observations but have two of my own to add. First, the male athlete (I'm keeping names out to protect the innocent...HAHAHA) keeps the dumbell closer to his body and on more of straight line up his body which is more efficient. He also explodes his hips harder/faster.

  12. Set two bars for myself on this WOD. Shoulder mobility was not real good so Clayton suggested I stay light on the OHS.

    4:54 95# Power Cleans/30# OHS

    Definitely going to put in some time working on stretching the shoulders and working on OHS with PVC at home.

    Thanks for the support from the class during the last minute/rounds. Would not have made the cap without the boost!
