Good technique - forcing those knees out on the squat. We don't want to go to low on the Back Squat. If your butt winks, thats to low. We want to eliminate that butt wink, and to do so, you have to force your knees out, which then creates an active hip. We want a flat back on the deads, pulling with the hamstrings. Remember - the push press isn't a push jerk. Some of you are going into a push jerk, which means you are creating momentum up, and then getting under the weight. The push press is a dip and then press. Hips have to open up, followed by the press. Some are starting to go into the press with a closed hip, which then kills the momentum. Lets work on these things. Make it happen.WAR Classroom DiscussionA. WAR Journal Questions: Do you see the importance of giving it your all every day when you come to the WAR Gym?
