“Who knows that they’re not the prettiest mover on the face of the
Earth?” Pat Sherwood asks. Amongst the trainers ready to refine their
movement is Michael Giardina of
CrossFit Atlanta, who’s ready to attack a weakness: the air squat.
The coaches improve Giardina’s movement using two different but complementary approaches.
Nicole Christensen of
CrossFit Roots
is the first up to bat. She identifies a loss of lumber curve and a
bounce or “booty pop” out of the bottom. She improves his lumbar control
with a cue to “stay tight” at the bottom of the squat and “squeeze up”
instead of bounce.
Justin Bergh of
CrossFit Southside
provides another approach to fix the loss of lumbar curve. His method
is to attack Giardina’s inflexibility by having him actively squeeze his
hip flexors while squatting.
“The goal’s not to get down; the goal is to get up effectively,” Bergh says.
