Here's the exact progression we use to teach the sn**ch from scratch โ€” all the way to their first power position sn**ch.

Step 1: High Pulls โ€” build the pull pattern and bar path Step 2: Muscle Sn**ches โ€” lock in the turnover without the catch Step 3: Tall Sn**ches โ€” teach the pull under and the catch Step 4: Overhead Squat โ€” build the position and confidence overhead Step 5: Power Position Sn**ch โ€” first full variation, everything comes together

This is how you actually teach athletes to sn**ch. No shortcuts, no sloppy reps.

Save this if you coach athletes. ๐Ÿ‘‡

Hamstring pulls are one of the most preventable injuries in sports โ€” but most athletes are missing the #1 thing.

Nordics build eccentric strength. They help. But nothing prepares your hamstrings like actually sprinting at top-end speed.

The game plan:

Sprint at 90-95%+ consistently
Build eccentric strength with Nordics
Ramp up gradually โ€” don't go zero to 100
Don't let this mistake keep you from playing healthy and at your best.

6:30 AM. Before school. Before everyone else.
-
Weโ€™re opening a Wednesday morning training class for high school athletes and rising 9th graders. Two coaches, 8 spots.
-
If your afternoons are packed with practice and games, this might be your answer. Itโ€™s on the schedule now โ€” spots are limited. If this goes well, we may open up more morning training opportunities.

Broke the 2-second barrier on his 5-0-5 agility drill โ€” only the second athlete in Wilmington Strength history to do it. He now holds the 2nd best 5-0-5 time in the entire gym.

Then came back AFTER baseball practice to test his lifts:
โฌ†๏ธ Push Press โ€” up 20 lbs
โฌ†๏ธ Clean โ€” up 15 lbs
โฌ†๏ธ Deadlift โ€” up 45 lbs

All in about 8.5 weeks. That's what consistency and showing up looks like. Keep going Tristan ๐Ÿ’ช

Here's Mason hitting a pristine 120 lb front squat, up 25 lbs from his last test. And Rafe, an 8th grader, testing his front squat for the very first time โ€” 155 lbs.

Both of these guys have a lot more in the tank. Keep showing up, keep making progress. ๐Ÿ’ช

High pulls โ†’ Muscle cleans โ†’ Tall cleans โ†’ Power position cleans โ†’ Hang cleans

Each step builds on the last. High pulls keep the bar close. Muscle cleans nail the front rack. Tall cleans teach you to drop under. Power position cleans use your legs to pop the bar up. Hang cleans put it all together.

Simple progression. Fast results.

Our clients donโ€™t leave reviews because weโ€™re โ€œnice.โ€

They leave them because their kid got faster.
Stronger.
More confident.

We measure everythingโ€”Fly-10 speed, vertical jump, Olympic lift PRsโ€”so progress isnโ€™t a guess.

Timed sprints drive intent and give real feedback.
Line hops build ankle stiffness, improve rate coding, and increase tissue capacity in the lower leg.

Layer it all together and you get athletes who can dominate their sport with speed.

Great technique on both lifts. She's been working super hard, and it shows.

On top of that, her 5-0-5 agility time is one of the best in the gym and has improved dramatically since she started.

Great job, Caroline! ๐Ÿ‘
