It might be \u201cpopping the hips\u201d during a kipping movement, \u201cfinish the pull\u201d in a snatch or clean, or the old \u201csqueeze your butt\u201d at the top of a squat or deadlift. All coaching cues have a degree of truth behind them, but some are overused to the point where they are unhelpful or even misleading. An overemphasis on hip extension in movement is definitely one of those cues that are overused. In this week\u2019s episode we discuss the use of coaching cues, rant a little about the ones we find misleading and explore some of the reasons why these cues are overused. Check out the episode to hear what we find are better cues, and ways of thinking about and coaching movement.
