This video is a must watch for anyone doing barbell lifts. Quite possibly the most important aspect of strength training!

If you can't explain your "program" this well, its probably not worth doing.

"If the strength program only produces sporty-looking displays of the already-present athletic talent that the recruiter puts in the locker room, and fails to quantifiably increase strength, then it is not a strength program."

315x2. This is what real training gets you.

@FHSHardBall @EricCressey I do not disagree with any of this, but this is why each lift is a progression and not just a go do it kind of thing. A cue like "knees out" is to correct a flaw. The primary flaw in his example is foot position, not knee position.

FYI, "lifting weights" and "working out" do not constitute strength TRAINING, you're just exercising.

[FHS Strength @FHSWeightRoom]

Clinics, camps, practicing year round are fine and well, but if they were the answer Fauquier wouldn't be able to hold the trophies and banners. Why not give getting strong a chance???
