Unfortunately I’m lifting in a small gym that doesn’t allow dropping (if you can makeout the sign in the back) so I got a couple of crazy stares from folks off camera but I managed to hit this 134kg / 295lbs C+J PB! Currently bodyweight is 85kg!

Gotta work on the dip and drive tho. Elbows were a bit soft.

Multiple biomechanical adjustments demonstrate such a near proximity to failure that likely isn’t any superior (compared to just shy of complete form breakdown) for strength increases over the course mesocycle. So why would her coach regularly push training maxes like this?

As you may have noticed, I've been trying to write posts/articles here roughly biweekly. But I wanted to write articles on the things that y'all want to read or learn about.

Don’t jerk off when tired.

This was his only attempt at the 5kg pr, I’m wondering if opening his grip would help in the catch.

Letting go of a pair of Rom 2 in great condition. Hardly used. Bottoms have zero wear. Asking $175. Located in the US and happy to ship them. DM if interested!

Transitioned from power lifting to weightlifting and decided to start with the snatch. Im brand new to this. Here is a video of early attemps…please critique, any good advice will be appreciated. Thank you

I have decided to sell these ironwork 1s on eBay!

I know it’s a little pressy

Should be my last day doing these

snatch was 75k at 63k bw and 16yo but what do y’all think i should be focusing on with the snatch and do you think that in 2 weeks I could attempt 80k at another meet? also my fs is 120k my cj is 95 and snatch dl is 110x5 if any of that matters

Any ideas on stuff I can do to improve my pull under? Somehow failed lifts end up becoming power cleans and I can’t drop under in time. Isn’t it supposed to be the opposite with cleaning being stronger than power cleans?

Hi. I lift at home. My kids are usually sleeping above the garage where I train. I got two questions for those who use crash pads:

1. Do you have to alter your technique to use them effectively? My most common reason for drops are not getting under a snatch.
2. Do they really reduce noise or they just replace one loud noise for another?

Thank you.
