The Importance of Leg Drive in Power Lifts
Adam: I always heard power lifters talk about leg drive when they would bench press and it never made any sense to me. When you're doing a movement that big with that much potential weight on it, your body can load more just by being able to be primed, warmed up and stable in order to do that lift. The central nervous system can fire more effectively when it's firing throughout the body versus just in an isolated place. And back to like, Justin loves to talk about this with like the shoulders. That was another big aha moment for me as well.
