Calling all OL'ers......:)

[jagboy]

Donovan Ford looking Jack3d

Mind fukking blown hes only 5'9". always assumed he was like 6'1"

Impressive lifts so far as well.

[jb4476]

got excited for a sec even though I'm not at UofT (downtown)

...then I realized that was UTM

****. Goddamnit, no I would be on main campus, not Mississauga. They don't have an OL'ing program on the main campus?

No program. Just a good gym and no video policy lol. There are some top lifters here that train with no coach tho. Also every once in a while a former world medalist shows up lol.

Realtalk: if you came here i'd probably convince you to start training random lifts like 1RM barbell curls, weighted muscleups and heavy weighted pushups (180lbx3 here). So beware.

Srs bro, come with me to University of Toronto

http://www1.erin.utoronto.ca/~w3phys...-lifting-team/

Physical Therapy program isnt at UTM, and the pre reqs are pretty high. brb 3.7 gpa was the cutoff for 2012 class.
Will probably apply to all the Cali schools plus schools in Oregon, Washington, and Canada. Maybe some east coast schools.

Can't forget about LSU Shreveport and East Tennessee State for dem dere weightlifting programs.

Just found the pre reqs for ETSU PT program:

Have an overall GPA of 2.7 (on a 4.0 scale) in all undergraduate coursework;

Have a prerequisite course GPA of 3.0 (on a 4.0 scale);

Submission of official GRE scores (general section);

Three recommendations (recommendations must be submitted on the forms provided in the School of Graduate Studies application materials) - at least one must be from a licensed physical therapist.

Completion of the prerequisite courses with no grade in any prerequisite course below a "C" (2.0 on a 4.0 scale);

Is this real life? That's so fukking low lol. My pre req gpa will be around 3.5 and overall gpa will probably be close to 3.0

body adjusted to the volume

the more frequent my squat routines the healthier my knees felt after about 6 weeks.

I felt the same. Entering 9th week of squatting every day (except Thanksgiving where, despite my best effort, I could not find an open gym). In the first several weeks, I would occasionally get pain in one knee while squatting. It was annoying and disruptive. Now, they feel strong and healthy all the time.

That **** is medicine. The manliest ****ing medicine in the world.

[feces99]

should i go for a 95 snatch triple

or

a 130 kilo clean and jerk

[TheOreoGuy]

^Both

I was expecting higher totals for the 69kg weight class. Do the top lifters hold out for the championships?

Starting an oly program today that runs 4 weeks. First time performing the snatch, c&j, and front squat consistently. Can't wait for the results

If you can triple 95, you can single 110.

[DaTruth1]

^ sounds about right. My training partner went hit 95 for a triple but failed on the 4th rep, and his PR is 110.

ankles, glutes, back

alot of back squat positions are caused by inflexible ankles.

glutes and hip abductors allow for a strong push from the bottom and stability

if your back is tight you are gonna hurt yourself.

pigeon pose, camel pose, various ankle stretches, and FFF showed me one that is awesome

Have to give an hour long talk on Matiyasevich's theorem in a few days. angus not peppered.

What kind of ankle stretches/mobility exercises do you go over? I work on everything but I haven't really found an exercise for the ankle that worked well (actually the only thing I tried was the one where you push your knees towards the wall without moving your hips)
