i started doing power cleans @ the beginning of this year started working on form with 10k on each side lol now im on 180lb

So yesterday I managed 1 max rep which was 100kg. I'm super happy with how my progress is going I'm clearly getting stronger. I know my form was horrible in this video, my form isn't usually like that, so I'll put it down to the weight as it broke my form quite easily. Previously to this I was...

I have been incorporating dumbbell variations of Olympic lifts into my training program for max-strength. From what I understand, they also aid in explosive strength as well. I am taking a back-off week this week, but I am making a training schedule for next week. I want to start incorporating more...

Hey guys, I've been doing MT for about a year now and I'd like to start lifting for strength, explosivness and to improve fast twitch muscle fibers ( I don't know if this stuff is even real but I've done like two days of research and this stuff gets brought up a lot for athlete training ) ...

Hoping someone can advise me on concurrent training. Currently crossfit 3x week optional between Mon/Fri/Sat or Mon/Weds/Fri. I was incorporating strength work later in the day - mostly accessories -hypertrophy based reps. Looking to refine my technique, strength and power - have spoken...

Hello, I would appreciate if you can give me some advice on how to transition to weightlifting from my current state. I can't really say powerlifting, although I was following the Starting Strength program. A little info about me. I am lifting 2 years and a half constantly, most of the time I...

I usually post these types of threads in Strongman/Powerlifting but I've recently started to lift using the Oly lifts. Except snatch, don't have the shoulder mobility for it....yet. I'm going to pull the trigger on a new pair of shoes. I currently have the Adidas Powerlift 3's and I'm looking...

So I've been lifting for years, but should be a lot bigger and stronger considering how long I have. I've primarily focused on Oly lifting and previously had set backs with tendonitis and I haven't always been in a caloric surplus or trained with a barbell as well as I have also tended to do a lot...

I’m transitioning from a power lifting routine to Oly lifts. On my jerk, I’m having some posterior delt discomfort. This doesn’t occur in strict OHP or any other shoulder work. Sometimes it occurs during snatches but not as often. Any ideas what may be causing it? Poor form, muscles not use to the...

I live in Pasadena and I've recently started to attempt the Olympic lifts. I'm really looking for a place that can teach good form and teach it safely without breaking the bank. I know a good is essential but I'm limited on training time due to my work schedule. All input is greatly...

I wonder how many of you in the Olympic lifting stream lift purely for recreational purposes and do not lift to compete?

Hey guys...beginner here so please go easy! I was diagnosed with mild s****osis as a kid so my back is a bit wonky. It causes my hamstrings to be abnormally tight at all times. So, when I go to get into proper deadlift form, I can't really get my butt in the right position because my hammy's...

Doesn't seem to be many if any blurays out there covering the ROGUE Strongman annual contests, or Olympic Weightlifting...National powerlifting...the Animal Cage competitions...etc. Or am I just not finding them? Have Googled and looked on Amazon.ca. Seems to be very little media coverage. Or am I...

Two days ago I decided to try adding power cleans to my program for explosive strength. I worked my way up slowly with good form doing many reps with light weight to get it down. That was until I reached 95 lbs I got tired and didn't catch the bar quite right. I caught it in my wrists instead...
