The O-lifting Thread

Worlds starting today. Anyone have any idea where I can watch online?

77kg class should be a great battle.

Just looked at the start lists, Chigishev and Aramnau not lifting?

I have tried snatching twice this weak and when the weight gets heavy (50kg) I start doing press outs. I dont have any plans on competing, I do it because its fun and because its supposed to be good for your explosiveness. The press out shouldnt matter for the "explosive gaines" right?

Well the more explosive you are the less you will have to press out.

Does one have to register or sign up for anything?

[Spenda]

don't think so

Yeah, I tried those two links posted earlier and it's just table tennis on Eurosport. They were showing the 48kg women's before that though. Anyone have any other sources? The men's 52 kg (I think) just started 15 mins ago and that russian site hasn't posted any links, and my sopcast one is not working anymore

Aramnau is not on the start list

[cobrastatus]

I didn't see Dolega either, did I miss him or is he also out of action?

he's had some issues with the law and repeated drunk driving offenses, we may not even see him in 2k12 olympics.

On his facebook page on Sept 13th he posted that he was training hard for France 2011. So at least he thought he would be competing as early as 3 weeks ago. Broz seemed to think that the drunk driving stuff was just an excuse for him to not have to compete so he could move up to super heavy. It doesn't really make much sense that there would be a cop in Belarus that would arrest Aramnau for murder, let alone drunk driving.

Am I doing it wrong if I have doms in my lower back and especially my traps after power cleaning?

[Aidan]

lower back might be a worry, but my traps are often sore after PCs. It is from the shrugging motion to get the bar going upwards.

Great to see a Kazakh and Turkish girl finish above the Chinese in the female 53's just now. Was expecting the Chinese girl to come out and just smoke everyone with her opener. Good to see some competition!
