Discover the New Complete Olympic Lifting
Part I: Readiness Assessment
Wil takes you through the movement tests that will quickly show you whether or not your athletes are ready to Olympic Lift. This section will show you:
3 "must do: assessment movements and specific corrections for every possible limitation your athletes will experience
3 useful methods for teaching the Hip Hingea--or theya--ll struggle to RDL correctly
The best way to teach the loaded squat
How to use certain plyometrics to prepare for the Olympic Lifts
Part II: The Clean
From the grip and core stabilization through the full hang and power clean progression, Wil simplifies every detail in teaching the most popular of the Olympic Lifts. Here youa--ll discover Wila--s full teaching progression for teaching the clean, including dozens of cues, regressions and fixes to common errors, as well as a 3 Step Part/Whole Complex putting it all together:
Hang Clean
Phase I: Establishing the proper starting position and initiating movement
Phase II: How to move the bar with speed (and what to do when they struggle to put it together)
Phase III: Incorporating movement of the arms
Phase IV: Racking the bar from the high pull position
Power Clean
3 Step progression for getting into the starting position
2 strategies for lifting the bar from the floor in the power clean (beginners vs
advanced)
Why a 2-Part Power Clean should be used before attempting the single movement
Clean Variations (And WHY You Should Use Them)
The variation you should use for improving the final hip extension phase. (where
most athletes fail to complete the lift)
The variation you should use for athletes who need greater starting strength (track sprinters & football lineman).
The variation you should use for developing greater power and strength in the starting position.
The variation you should use for teaching athletes to absorb forces in a semi-single leg stance. (Absorbing the load in this position is similar to sprinting and is an excellent movement when your training theme is: Speed!)
The variation you should use for improving power production and familiarizing athletes with greater weights.
The variation you should use for teaching athletes to get into the low squat position required to receive the bar. (Wil teaches a 3 step progression for this variation.)
Common Errors (Symptoms & Causes)
How to eliminate landing with the feet in a wide catch position
How to eliminate jumping forward to receive the bar
How to prevent the hips from rising too quickly (leading to the back being parallel to the ground before initiating the first pull) in the power clean
How to prevent the elbows from pointing down in the catch position
Part III: The Jerk
Wil starts with the basics of the jerk (grip, hand/arm and foot position) and then rolls through his full teaching progression, including:
Keys for teaching the 2 prerequisite pressing movements which must be stabilized before progressing
How to use the push press and power jerk to teach explosiveness through the hips (instead of just doing an arm based overhead pressa--)
Wila--s favorite a-?footwork drillsa-- for teaching split jerk preparation
Common Errors (Symptoms & Causes)
How to prevent athletes from catching the bar with the front knee moving forward
How to prevent athletes from rotating the rear foot outward and catching with too much weight on the back leg
How to prevent athletes from receiving the bar too far forward
Part IV: The Snatch
Starting with the easiest way to establish grip width and proper foot position, Wil details his full teaching progression for this underutilized lift, including:
Hang Snatch
Phase I: Establishing the proper starting position and initiating movement
Phase II: How to move the bar with speed (and what to do when they struggle to put it together)
Phase III: Incorporating movement of the arms
Phase IV: Racking the bar from the high pull position
Power Snatch
3 Step progression for getting into the starting position
2 strategies for lifting the bar from the floor in the power clean (beginners vs advanced)
Why a 2-Part Snatch should be used before attempting the full Power Snatch
Snatch Variations (And WHY You Should Use Them)
The variation you should use to help athletes gain comfort in the final hip extension phase of the second pull (where most athletes fail to complete the lift)
The variation you should use for athletes who need greater starting strength (track sprinters & football lineman).
The variation you should use for developing greater power and strength in the starting position. (This drill is unlike anything else athletes can do in the weight room)
The variation you should use for teaching athletes to absorb forces in a semi-single leg stance. (Absorbing the load in this position is similar to sprinting and is an excellent movement when your training theme is: Speed!)
The variation you should use for improving power production and familiarizing athletes with greater weights. (This movement can be done from any starting position.)
The variation you should use for teaching athletes to get into the low squat position required to receive the bar. (Wil teaches a 3 step progression for this variation.)
