This week on The MiFit Podcast I bring back friend and mentor, Sam Smith. I recently had the opportunity to travel to Arizona for vacation and had some time to workout at Opex Hq and hangout with Sam. In today’s episode Sam and I took a deeper dive how weightlifting is expressed in the sport of CrossFit and how we as coaches can help our athletes progress weightlifting in such a chaotic sport. If you enjoy learning about the nuances of programming then this episode is for you. Topics -Difference between Weightlifting and CrossFit as a sport -Pre-requisites of building your snatch and clean and jerk -How strong do you need to be? -Using structural balance to determine an athletes needs -Progressing an athlete from a non-fatigued state to fatigued state -Barbell cycling in the sport of CrossFit
