So it appears that I missed the first of those two because I let the bar get out too far in front. The bar on the second missed lift looked closer to my body, though, so what was my problem there?
I am also going at Clydesdale speed, but I just realized what the weight was and that it was a snatch pr for me. And it was the weight that I couldn’t do at the Hopper challenge.
I watched this video 28783721 times today and I think I finally see the relationship between my chest being forward and my ass going up in the air. So is it safe to say that if I focus on keeping my chest up it will push my rear down?
I'm an athlete and coach at Potomac Crossfit in Arlington Virginia. I'll mostly write about how to take average Crossfit athletes and coaches to higher levels. I'll also write about my (occasional) training, stoicism, poetry, libertarian economics, and nutrition.

Dear lord! Not nearly aggressive enough…I look like I’m in slow motion. Also look afraid to get under the bar.
Seeing this on video is really helpful. I see my arms bending early on the first lift where I fall on my ass.

Very cool sight and tool.
Looks like all of us (except maybe Sarah) need to work on speed through the middle.
Need to speed up the second pull!
