Where to Start

When you watch someone move, triage.  If you want to help them get better, you’ve got to pick one thing to tell them about.  You can’t tell them about their feet, arms, head and chest all at once.  They’re just going to say “okay” and then move worse.

This is nothing new.  You’ve all heard me talk about this.

The new thing I want to mention is that when it comes to the snatch and the clean p, one of the best corrections you can give a novice lifter is to get them to stop pulling early.  Get them to bring the barbell up as high up the leg as possible before launching.  Usually, this involves telling them to stop picking up the bar from the floor and instead work from a high hang position.

One correction?  Work from the high hang.
