Start Position:

A) Approach the bar like you would on C&J.

I think it’s time to include mental training in your development, Jani.

“Clear your head.”

“Relax.”

“Don’t think too much.”

And my favorite, “Let the body do the work.”

Bubs,

I'm only teasing you the way I tease my younger sister and 10-year-old daughter. You know I got nuttin' but luv for you. :)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DOCS!!

Chris, I'm glad you started this thread. I've been meaning to ask you something.

Laura,

Speaking of squats, do you do anything with your feet?

I set both front and back squats triples by adding a curve to my feet. Basically, my coach had me pull the balls of my feet towards...

Your back looks like the map of North Dakota, Laura.

You can step on any stage and do well - figure, bodybuilding, fitness, etc..

That is correct.

The classic lifts take time to learn. Focus on the pyramid and you will be just fine.

Once you are good enough with the snatch, the skill set will easily transfer over to the...

If I were single and I were a helicopter pilot, I’d be like….

Thanks, mate.

My 1RM in clean grip DL is 308-lbs. According to some data, Weightlifters should be able to do 1RM clean grip DL equivalent to their 1RM high-bar back squat.
