Training the Skills
When training skills, and in particular highly skilled exercises like clean & jerk and snatching, it’s critical to understand what your training intention is and what those lifts are being used for.
Commonly, skill work is done in conditioning training. That isn’t the best time or place to train skills, especially when they’re done quickly with power.
Fatiguing yourself before training skills does not help to develop motor patterns and proficiency in the skill.
We put together this article and video to get more in depth on when/how/why to train skills in an overall training scheme.
Tomorrow we will be discussing when and how to use strength training.
Until then,
