The Master Cue - The Dos & Don’ts of Lifting
Manage episode 304402102 series 1517494
Matt and Scott discuss the master cue, a cue developed based on a basic understanding of biomechanics that can be used for many lifters.
You cannot perform a squat correctly if the center of mass of the barbell-lifter system is not directly over the center of balance (your midfoot). The midfoot really means, however, that weight is balanced between the balls of your feet and your heels.
Because it can be hard for people to think about keeping the bar over the midfoot, we tend to draw the attention to the foot. As a coach, the foot is a helpful point to focus on to determine what is going on with a squat. As a lifter, paying attention to where you feel the pressure on your foot helps tell you if you’re properly balance or too far back on your heels or forward on the balls of your feet.
Because of this, the foot serves as a diagnostic tool for the squat.
