Three's the charm

Lindsay Before

Growing up, Lindsay Raynne relied on food for emotional support. “I came from a broken family, and eating was my constant,” she says. “Stability in caloric intake, you could say. I could always count on the joys of taste.” Low-income living meant poor food quality for Raynne and her family, and she lived off of simple carbs, processed foods, and sugar.

Raynne struggled with body-image issues and disordered eating throughout her life, and while she wasn’t particularly fit, she also wasn’t overweight.

After Raynne married her husband Michael and gave birth to their daughter, Leah, things were good. However, when she became pregnant again, doctors said the baby would have several medical issues, including cerebral palsy — and that she may not even survive the birth. Raynne put all other concerns, including her own health, on the back burner.

THE POWER CLEAN (Discover this dirty little secret for better functional fitness.)

OLYMPIC LIFTS ARE A VALUABLE TOOL FOR IMPROVING STRENGTH and athletic performance — and as a side bonus, they also help develop crazy-good muscle shape, size, and definition. In fact, one could argue that the power-clean portion of the clean-and-jerk is the best exercise ever devised. “The clean is a functional movement used [routinely] in everyday activities,” says Aaron Viscounte, CSCS, head coach and manager at Summer’s Fitness Inc. in North Canton, Ohio. “We use aspects of the clean to pick up a box and put it on a shelf, move furniture or even go grocery shopping.” During a power clean, the barbell travels from the floor to the “racked” position at shoulder level and back down again. We tapped some elite trainers for their step-by-step expert advice on making the most of every rep.
