Hang clean is hips back which causes your knees to slightly bend. You're focusing on knees instead of hips.

Klokov presses are wider, almost hands to collar.

Yeah I usually go wider on btn presses or really close but decided to try medium grip? Felt better.

Straps on a clean? Pls stay safe bro

[scarboro]

Straps on a clean? Pls stay safe bro

I should have explained lol, I tore both of my thumb calluses on my prev sets (hook gripping). I was actually gonna go a bit higher but due to the straps I didn't feel too "safe" incase I missed it. Made my racking ability a lot worse with those things.
I really have to work on mobility/healing up my calves. Due to extreme sharp pain on side of calves I've been limited on how heavy I can squat and today there was no way I could even back squat 255 let alone front squat it thus the ****ty power cleans.

I train with an azn version of myself lol. We used to be pretty close in strength and he was power cleaning 100kg a year ago like me( with bad form) but now he's at 110/140+ as a 77 lmao. The guy is an absolute beast. 170kg bench, 170+ front squat, 250 deadlift, 140 push press, 110kg strict press (yep its unreal)

There is no hope for me however, I have terrible mobility and usually am too lazy to work at it. I have random spurts of actually being able to lift for a couple of weeks then I get tight/lose form and just end up fooling around with curls and bench in the gym. I am way more into weightlifting as a hardcore fan.

Your snatches looked really good btw. I can see you going 120/140 in the future.

Rybakov's career bests are 187/209 which is a higher ratio than 140/160. In Doha he went 185/195.

my snatching ability >>>>>>>>>>> my clean and jerk.

[brahskimoseph]

My training time and ability to lift is pretty small, so I was wondering if something like this would work?


5 doubles of a weight for monday, then 10 singles for a slightly heavier weight the next, and vice versa everyday until sunday. Then monday add five lbs and do it again.

yes, progressive overload has been proven to work time and time again in olympic lifting. just add 1kg a week you wont even notice it. you'll be snatching world records in a matter of months!

not sure if srs but proceding with doing it anyways. Only takes like a half hour at most too. I'm exhausted af after practice. We practice 4 hours a day man, it's retarded.
