Training Notes
Improving Your “Catch” of the Barbell
Athletes often struggle with receiving the barbell in “rack position”. This is Brett’s position above. The barbell is rested firmly across the deltoids, not the sternum. You will the barbell is right at the base of the throat, not forward resting.
How do you get the barbell to land in this position properly?
SPEED!
On the 3rd pull of the movement, the portion where we drop underneath the barbell you must move very quickly and focus on driving your elbows up at maximum velocity! Think about this as an attacker making his way towards you and must throw a vicious elbow uppercut at them. Move with the kind of barbell speed like your life was at stake!
Then, you will have an idea of the speed required to be successful at Olympic lifting.
