Develop coordination

Coordination is skill that is required in competitive sports and every day life. Coordination is something that is only developed through time and effort. CrossFit defines coordination as a persons ability to combine several distinct movement patterns together into a singular distinct movement. The clean is a combination of a deadlift, jump, shrug, catch, and front squat.

All movements are dictated by the nervous system. The nervous system must be efficiently trained to ensure movements are properly developed. This will allow for maximum strength gains with minimal risk of injury.

Take your time to develop new movements. Focus on the basics. Success is in the details. Study and ask questions. Read articles, watch videos, record yourself and observe others in class. You can learn from everyone.

What is the best way you like to learn a new movement?
