Do you lose the bar forward during cleans or feel it crash on you in snatches? The problem might not be your catch—it's your pull. In this video, Dr. Jeff Lewis, owner of Lewis Physical Therapy & Sports Rehab, explains why clean pulls and snatch pulls are essential tools to improve bar path, timing, and strength in your Olympic lifts—especially for CrossFit athletes over 30.

Learn how pulls can help you:
✅ Stay over the bar longer
✅ Build explosive strength from the floor
✅ Improve patience through the first and second pulls
✅ Prevent early hip extension and bar crashing
✅ Increase durability and reduce injury risk

If your technique has plateaued—or you're working around pain—adding pulls 1-2x/week could be the fix you need.
