CONGRATULATIONS ATHLETES!
One of our most favorite things is when our athletes step outside their comfort zone and try new things, and this was certainly a weekend where people did just that. We had several athletes compete in their first competition (or their first “outside the box” competition) and even had one travel all the way to Miami to compete in her first elite invitational event. We’d bet most of these people would tell you they were incredibly nervous or anxious going in (and maybe lost some sleep thinking about it), but we guarantee you that NONE of them regret doing it. If you are thinking about competing or want to know more about it, we are more than happy to talk to you. It’s an experience you will never forget.

Coach’s Tip: The jump up step down ensures safety, but it also works explosiveness off the ground. It eliminates the stretch reflex and makes you explode from a more static position. The weight on the clean should be something heavy, but not singles out of the gate. At least be able to string a set of five on the first go!
Beast.
