Anyone else have Oly lifting vids? I'm OK but I need to get way (way) better, technically at least. I would like to put up 115/145 for a 260 kg Oly total by the end of 2013. I think that is doable. My best front squat rep PR is 270 lbx8 at the moment so in theory I should be able to clean 300-315 lb ish, not yet though. Here's 102 and 107 kg on the C+J, the next video is a pathetically easy 107 kg clean, and then I ****ed up and missed 112, which was embarassing considering how high I pulled it. The last video is a BTN Push press PR of 225 lbx5.

^ I tried to get good at olympic lifting. I wasn't very successful. I've decided to leave it alone, at least for the time being. Here's some incriminating evidence against me:

Is it just cleans that give you strife? Just snatches? Or both? I'm fortunate enough to have never had any real wrist issues with cleans, but frequent overhead squatting and power snatching gave me a torn muscle in my right wrist back in 2010, and it's only been very recently that I've been able to push heavy weights (on any pushing exercise -- this injury caused more bench press problems than issues with any other lift that could get affected by it, simply because of the heavy load involved in benching) without my wrist giving me grief.

I mean, I still suck (a lot) at Oly lifting, seem to have issues with mental commitment to the pull in the snatch, resulting in the bar being too far forward. My best is 80/110 for a lowly 190 kg total, when your snatch is significantly less than half of your back squat, you've got a serious imbalance of strength to technique. For comparison, 191 kg is Andrei Rybakou's best snatch, and he's in my weight class (of course, he's also a freak snatcher, one of the best ever, comparable to Blagoev, Lu Xiaojun and Krastev).

Bump. Sorry for the shortness of the video, Ill try to get a better one next week. I stopped doing weighted pullups for a bit, so I started again last week. This is me doing pullups with 25lbs, I can only do two full ones, and then my last rep isn't all there, also, video was taken in the middle of my set. To be a bit more of a drama queen I was upset because someone was where I like to do my pullups, so I was grumpy having to do them at that station (but I was just happy to see my back progress.)

What made it worse was that I patiently waited for one couple to leave the spot I was going to use, got my weight ready, then when they left, I went to go grab my stool, and some dude just walked right up to where my stuff was and started using the pull up bar for abs. Good job on your weighted pullups, you should post a video =)

I'm so glad that this was 60kg. If it was pounds, I'd have to fire you.

I totally disagree, back angle is just about perfect if she's low back squatting which I think she is
looks like you relax your hamstring at the bottom that's why your knees have that forward movement when coming up
common issue with long legged people when trying to get depth , don't relax your hams and shove your knees out
looks very good to mewho says love has to be soft and gentle ?

can't tell
the back angle seems spot on if you look at the bar in relation to your feet but if you think lowering the bar a bit would help try ... you can always switch back
I dont really see much wrong in your squat except what I already said, the last 2 reps you lose back tightness but it's to be expected as you get tiredwho says love has to be soft and gentle ?

You've come such a long way on your squats!! It all looks perfect except for the bottom, where you are trusting your posterior until you are ready to come out of the hole, and transfer the weight forward as you reverse direction. But as you are coming up, you push the weight back onto your posterior. When the weight shifts at the bottom, the bar shifts forward just a bit too, not enough to make you have to good morning, but I think it is enough of a shift that where when you can get that to not happen at all, and you can keep all the weight in back, the barbell will feel even lighter and huge PR's to be had
For fixes, I'd suggest goblets as part of your warm up, maybe sit in the bottom of the goblet for a few seconds and just feel out which muscles you are using to support yourself. I find the 'traps into the bar' cue helps a lot with keeping the chest up on the way up and making sure that no shifting goes on in the hips, driving with traps just pulls everything up in order. If you are box squatting at all, make sure you don't plop or lose tightness at the bottom, and that you don't rock forward off the box.
Again, it looked awesome! You know I am a picky squatter lol, but that is just because the tiniest thing is what breaks you when it is max time
re the bar being lower, I wouldn't get too hung up on that, put it where it rests comfortably for you, but a very low position does force you to arch harder to hold it in place, so might be worth playing around with if you feel you are losing your chest/shoulder set up as your set progresses.CSCS
