"What counts in sports is not the victory, but the magnificence of the struggle."
-Joe Paterno
Above: When you squat--air, front, back, overhead, wall ball, etc.--you should always drive your knees out! I cannot drill this enough. There are so many benefits to driving your knees out and having that beautiful diamond at the bottom of a squat! You are not only more efficient and stronger, but you will save and protect your knees in the long run.

Day 20 and 21 of the 50-day Paleo Challenge: Everyday Paleo Cookbook and Paleo Comfort Foods cookbook!
If you haven't bought the Everyday Paleo Cookbook by Sarah Fragoso and Paleo Comfort Foods by Julie Sullivan Mayfield combination on Amazon, I highly suggest you get these 2 cookbooks! Both books showcase a wide range of foods, meals, desserts, and even smoothies. The reason I like the recipes is because they are very simple and the preparation time does not take longer than 10-15 minutes for 90% of the recipes.
Yesterday's WOD Board:
Knees out!!!
ReplyDeleteWhy? From a pure athletic stance - you will generate more power!
From a safety standpoint - you will better organize the position of your knee AND ankle while avoiding ACL problems :)))))
