In my experience, most people that say they don't have the wrist mobility to rack a bar are usually limited by tight lats and triceps, not their wrists.

It really comes down to the difference between extension and hyperextension. You hit a great power position, finish really well, but then at the top of your extension, you throw your hips forward. If you were jumping as high and you can, which is driving vertically, you wouldn't throw your...

The ol' jump at the bar rather than with the bar. If you can keep more vertical rather than all of the horizontal displacement you get from throwing your hips into the bar, that things is right there.

The general rule of weightlifting is hips move the bar, hands move the body.

This place still exists, huh? Yeah, you definitely want the bar to spin when snatching or cleaning. A bar that doesn't spin is a good way to hurt your wrists.

You'd think that, especially with a 120 ohp, but the last time I benched last year, I had to grind out 275 lbs lol. Just accept this victory.

Hell yeah, man. Excellent work. That's more 8 lbs more than my lifetime best bench.

Hell yeah, man. Time to set your sights on 3 reds.

I did 161/204 in training within a few months of us deciding to move me up and just got a clean & jerk medal at the AO. I likely would have gotten a medal for total if I wasn't snatching like such an asshole. I'm not going to get much bigger than maybe 120. I don't think I'll be competing for...

My coach bumped me to 105+. I just weighed 116 at the AO, so I'm still barely a 105, at this point.

Pendlays are garbage. The Klokov AF bar is garbage, too. I've lifted on a Get RXd bar that I liked decently well. ~$300 for a bearing bar is a pretty good deal. When we upgrade our bars next year, I will likely order Rogue. Pretty damn good bars, especially for the price, and great customer...

Yeah, I know what you mean. I wear weightlifting shoes and snatch and clean & jerk because I really want people to know that I'm a weightlifter.

Romaleos 3 rumored to be coming out early next year, if you are into having the newest. That may also mean cheap 2's.

202 kg clean & jerk and a 361 PR total .

152/188 for a 340 total, which is 2/6 and 8 kg competition PRs. Misses at 157/195.

Three PRs this morning including my first squat PR in over 2 years. 107 kg muscle snatch, 258 kg squat, 288 kg deadlift.

That's pretty damn solid, man. I definitely can't do that right now.

Why isn't anyone but me hitting PRs? 161/193 354 for PRs across the board.

202 kg BTN jerk.

182 kg power clean & jerk.
