Feet set, hands even, hook grip, chest up, shoulders back & down, knees out, butt back, weight on the heels, core tight, legs tight,butt tight, wrists straight, tension on the bar, translation, rotation, explode, thigh brush, hip extension, jump, shrug, bar close, fast elbows, drop quick, break parallel, stand up, drive up, light weight. Oh yeah, and don’t forget to breathe.
There’s so much to think about when lifting heavy things it’s impossible to think about anything else. If your mind wanders even for a second onto anything other than the heavy load in front of you, it’s over.
There’s so much freedom in this short moment of focus.
Because, in that moment, there are no worries, no woes, no stresses, no strife. Your troubles are irrelevant.
Nothing else matters.
Just you and the bar.
