The start of a new chapter means the end of an old one.

My years at have been easily the happiest and most peaceful I have experienced.

And that is because of the people.

I always felt at home at Koru, even as a shy introvert who just wants to lift weights and teach people to lift weights.

I especially want to thank all my in-person clients. Through you, I have built some of the most meaningful connections of my life.

To see you grow in strength and resilience has been the greatest privilege.

Thank you for enabling me to spend every day following my passions.

And a million thank yous for those who are sticking by me and transitioning to online coaching. It means the world to me that we get to maintain our relationship ❀️

It is not an ending! It is a new beginning πŸ’ͺπŸ‹β€β™€οΈ

Some of the crossfit I have done this week 🀨

Loved this program! I have managed to develop a lot of skills and physical qualities simultaneously, without getting injured. Feeling much more powerful, fast, and athletic. Also down 8lbs bodyweight.

BUT.... definitely weaker πŸ’” you really can't have everything apparently.

Next training project: ATHX Pro Liverpool prep 😬😬

Next coaching project: Olympic Weightlifting Course at CXFF, Chesterfield. Link in bio to book on!

And Koru folk - just because I am leaving doesn't mean you can't still work with me! I have online coaching spaces available - drop me a DM if you want to apply!

It feels weird pulling from the floor with a wide grip at first.

It is harder. Harder to reach the bar (as the wide grip effectively shortens the arms) and requires more mobility.

So when learning, people often default to a narrower grip.

But this doesn't work in the back half of the sn**ch - receiving the bar overhead with a narrow grip requires shoulder extension that most people just can't access. That's why the sn**ch is performed with a wide grip.

As a basic rule of thumb, stand tall and have it sitting in your hip crease, and see if you can lift the knees without the bar getting in the way.

From there, you can play with it until you find the sweet spot that feels good πŸ‹β€β™€οΈπŸ‹β€β™€οΈπŸ‹β€β™€οΈ

If you want to learn the sn**ch, along with the clean and jerk, I will be teaching classes at over the summer. Tuesday evenings from 14th July.

You can also still catch me at The Functional Fitness Centre, Royston until the end of June every Monday and Friday evening.

To get booked on to either, head to the link in my bio.
