I'm on my second week of it and I really like it so far. The regular club programming is 5 days/week which fits my schedule perfectly. They also have a beginner 3x/week program and an elite 9 sessions/week program as well


edit: the current cycle is focusing more on speed under the bar and the weights don't get too heavy but while I havent gone 90%+ on a lift in a while I have increased my consistency a crap ton as I havent missed lifts at %'s I would occasionally miss before

Got pinned under 43 twice tonight. Still sick but no excuse. Clean I mean.

My last big think I worked on is keeping the bar close on cleans and immediate reversal of direction. My new big thing is working on the heel snap on every lift you see the Eastern Europeans do. It helps me get under and bounce out of the clean most importantly. The Russians are ****ing pro at this. They establish the base before even getting to the bottom. I think it'll help me recover. I urge you guys to mess w it

If you're just tired push through. If you're truly wrecked and cns is ****ed give it a rest go light technique. Deload


Someone asked about body type and carb backloading. I assure you I was the fat "big boned" kid you made fun of in grade school. Srs. If it works for a endo/meso it'll work for you.

CBL is definitely something I want to try

Also, what is this "heel snap" you speak of? Now that I am coming back and my squat is way down and I am cleaning weights just below my current front squat, I desperately need to catch a bounce if I want to be able to hit the jerk

[ftwrestler]

snatched 116, and easily cleaned 132 and narrowly missed a jerk by a millimeter

vids coming

truth

i should be putting up 130-140 in the next couple months. my jerk is coming along. i nailed a 128 squat jerk today, but i didnt record it. i was running low on space

[schabowy90]

nice FT!!!!!!


for heel snap, look and listen at feet here. notice especially in clean how the base (feet) are set AGGRESSIVELY before the bounce. I think this helps tighten up the hamstrings and keep the back tight.

[WHT_LIGHTNING]

nice **** ft



schabowy, I definitely see what you are saying. What do you focus on? Just being aggressive with your feet/heels?

[strengthsthetic]

that snatch, much mirin.

doesn't it affect you when you look down at the start of your pull though?

[strengthsthetic]

does anyone have any links to good plans to make jerk blocks? The only DIY thing I've built is a lantern so this it's gonna be tough for me, at least my mum works at a hardware store.

I saw those ones, still confused

anyone whose built their own, what tools do you need? can anyone make them or do you have to be good at this kind of stuff?

[Danmacca]

I'm a carpenter, so I think it would be easy, but I guess it isn't

[Danmacca]

Ridiculously mirin!!!

Is your squat jerk really better than split?

I asked the same thing the first time I met FTW, and then he showed me his split jerk, and I was like "ya, okay nevermind."

I've never had someone explain over the knee vs around the knee wrapping to me. Explain

its true, i can confirm i was horrible form

How are you not 115/145?

because my jerk is not where it needs to be. i will get there. Patience my son

i had no idea such a philosophical debate existed. i just do what feels right, and i was taught never to wrap over a joint because it impairs movement
