Paleo Solution Podcast Episode 107 has some good weightlifting tips by Greg Everett.
Starting position for Olympic lifts [33:42]
Problem: the top of the shin (almost knee) the bar
Fix:
- adjust hips till your arms are vertical – shoulders will be slightly in front of the bar
- make sure bar is not touching the shins at the start
- don’t open hips too soon – bar has to go all the way to the upper thigh without touching your body
- partial deadlifts – shift weight from balls of the feet towards the heel – lift to kneecap – keep arms vertical
- halting deadlifts – mid thigh/hip area
- segment pulls (pause deadlifts), 1 inch of the floor, at knee, at hip, finish with snatch or clean
Bonus: The Fat Bomb
- pint coconut milk
- shot glass olive oil
- rub butter around the rim of the glass
