The Details Make the Difference!
If you missed our last workshop with powerlifter Nick King, you missed a ton of great information and some of it could completely change the way you approach your lifts.
Nick broke down the difference between loading and positioning for a high-bar vs. low-bar back squat, including how your individual body type and mechanics can determine what works best for you. Small changes in setup and positioning can make a BIG difference once the bar gets heavy.
On the deadlift, Nick focused on creating tension, dialing in your setup, and getting the most out of your starting position. These are the details that are easy to skip over or rush — but they can be the difference between fighting the bar off the floor and having a strong, efficient pull.
And then there was the bench press. There is SO much more happening before the bar ever starts moving than most people realize. Nick covered the liftoff/unrack position, proper setup, and how to engage and utilize your lats from the very beginning of the lift — something many lifters are leaving on the table. Lastly, are you properly stacking your wrists on the descend?
This isn’t just about lifting more weight. It’s about understanding why you move the way you do and how to make your lifts more efficient for YOUR body.
If you haven’t signed up for our next workshop with Nick King on Saturday, November 7, you should!
We’ll be diving into the back squat, deadlift, and bench press with an experienced powerlifter who knows how to break down the little details that can make a huge impact.
Come learn. Ask questions. Get hands-on coaching. And leave with tools you can immediately put to work in your training.
Nick has 12+ years of lifting experience and has coached 50+ athletes from beginners to intermediate competitors. His approach is simple: nail the basics, understand your technique, and build strength that lasts. @king_strong_1
