Looks very nice!

Did you have any background in other strength sports before you started OL? What can you Squat/Pull?

Yeah I trained like a powerlifter for almost a year and half. Prior to it, I pretty much fūcked around in the gym for about half a year.

I'm not sure how much I can squat or dl for 1rm, but here is the video of my 5rm squat from last week:



I switched from low bar to high bar about a month ago and now, I'm pretty much able to squat as much as I could with low bar, so I'm assuming I should be able to squat 475-485lb high bar with a belt.

look up

a neutral neck or whatever is probably the best, but I have to actively try and look up or else my head drops upon receiving the bar

video in question, also over at ATG

am I the only one who thinks that is "just" 190 (assuming women's bar, or 195 with men's bar). That is a green sandwiched between the 2 blues, no way is that a third blue.

[Ensix]

what could be the reason for my core being unstable under the jerk? is it weak or does the problem lie somewhere else?

[Danmacca]

Does Anybody know anything about lifting with orthotics/inserts in shoes? I am flat footed and don't wear them, because I was told not to once, but ****s me why It wouldn't help

are you getting your air and tightening your core before you jerk? Do you wear a belt? Do you regularly do ab/lower back work?

Those are all good solutions, depending on the problem also push presses are a good way to train a tight, straight dip and drive

[mchase126]

Speaking of core strength, what are some of your guys go - to core exercises?

[wisdommaster1]

hyperextensions for lower back all day
then
weighted sit-ups on GHD machine or sit-ups with a medball held overhead, sometimes I'll do russian twists as well

[Lamborg]

Most satisfying feeling is at the bottom of a snatch and you feel it balance out over your head and then you stand up

fuark i feel like snatching every single day but i feel like this could be detrimental
