At a certification seminar in 2008 in Scotts Valley, California, founder Greg Glassman explains the impact of technique when accomplishing tasks.
Coach Glassman has argued that high-power functional movements—such as the jerk and the kipping pull-up—are superior to simpler counterparts like the press and strict pull-up in several key respects. Later, in *“Productive Application of Force”* (Jan 2008), he clarified that strength is not merely muscular contractile force; what truly counts is the ability to channel that force into real physical work, which necessarily depends on the skills and mechanics of functional movement. In this video, Glassman expands on how technique connects to functional movement, power, and overall fitness. Far from conflicting with intensity, he explains, technique—along with mechanics, form, and style—is the very means of maximizing power. It is through proper technique that human potential in strength and energy is converted into measurable work capacity.
