Athletes should try to find a pace on their runs that allow them to start working at their dumbbells once they return.

‍

Devil Press

Flat backs.
Cue athletes to drop the hips, lift the chest, and drive through the legs to initiate the pull.
‍

DB Clean & Jerk

Overhead position.
Look for a stacked position with the DBs clearly over and not outside the shoulders.
Cue athletes to keep their biceps close to their ears.

Mindset

“Well done is better than well said.” - Benjamin Franklin

Talk is cheap.
Anyone can talk.
Only the few choose to DO.There will be a point today where we will feel compelled to express our thoughts to someone. Maybe it’s how something could be done better.Press pause at that moment.

“Ductus Exemplo” is a Latin phrase that translates to: “Lead by Example”.
Actions will always speak louder than any words.
