This is the “Bear’s” rack - - - a reminder that he had until his 14th birthday (8 days ago) to back squat 100kg. Not only did he squat his 100kg, he smashed a single at 102.5kg a few minutes afterwards. It’s amazing the power of a pair of scissors coupled with the threat of a mullet. Way to go kid! Check Bear out in the Kid Spotlight of the Month!

Congrats to one of our FIT lifters who set a new PR in her competition clean and jerk yesterday by putting up 70kg. And...she always does it with a smile. Way to go Alicia! Keep an eye out for her (and her younger sister) who will both be lifting Sunday, May 25, at the NorCal Open, hosted by FIT Barbell Club. http://www.norcalopen.com .

FIT BBC Coach Rob “Bob” shows the high hang position during the snatch. This is essential when teaching the transition between the 2nd and 3rd pull, in which the body is pulled violently beneath the bar. In this position, it is important to keep the trunk tall, tight, after pulling the hips into the bar, and maintaining bar positioning close to the body.
