Ty dudes.

Freiberg, thanks, I still need to work on my **** left ankle/leg position/mobility though. Lifting on that bounce-house-like surface isn't helping, either.

BTM, thanks. Yeah I was actually 241 yesterday. Had a cold and couldn't really eat properly over Memorial Day weekend or since. Dumb.

I almost weigh as much as you, dt. That's really quite depressing for me. If only there were some way for me to lose weight.

Nice snatch.

Thanks.

I don't even know how to eat anymore. I went to a diner to get a "big" lunch and I probably ate 900 kcals and not even 80g protein. I mean, just lol me. I probably can only eat like 20oz of steak. Trrble.

The gym is not bad. It's not good, but it's not bad. I did bring in my nice bar to lift with today though. Soooo much better. You reading this, POW?

Hey wait what does "cf-approved squats" mean? Hmm. I took a vid of squats, they look fine.

1k USD shoes, dainty ultra-narrow stance, high bar position, actually breaking parallel. Presumably a hook grip shirt.

I think I might just be jealous

I guess you're telling me this because the next time you come down to Florida, you'll be bringing your fancy bar to my home gym? In that case, drop-in fee is waived.

Sun 6/01/14
9am, garage gym, kg
body weight 247 (I ate a TON Thursday-today, it was nice)

Copy and pasting from my spreadsheet
notation is
kg / lbs x reps x sets
if no "sets" are listed, then it's reps, e.g. 80/175x2 is a double

Snatch
70 / 155 x2
80 / 175
90 / 200 x1x3
80 / 175 x2
85 / 185
95 / 210 x1x4

Clean & Jerk 95 / 210 x2
105 / 230
115 / 255 x1x3
105 / 230 x2
110 / 245
120 / 265 x1x4
2nd jerk was garbage, overall final jerks were not great
I was running out of gas here and very tired

Back Squat
143 / 315 x2x4
Was supposed to be 6, but this was killing the sunburn on my shoulders, I was at zero energy after almost two hours, I needed to eat, and these light doubles provide marginal benefit, so I stopped.

I know nothing about snatch form, but your head position is cocked back a bit on the setup and your head goes forward sometimes when the weight is over your head.

Both should be ok. I am also not 100% sure on this though.

Pay attention for things like neck stiffness & weird arm pains or tingling up to a day or two after lifting. If you get any of that stuff, it might be a sign its not ok. If you dont get any of those symptoms, maybe its ok.

I've never had arm pain/tingling. I have had neck stiffness/pain at various times, as we've discussed in the past. It's 100% resolved as of my (olympic) weightlifting restart ~12(?) weeks ago. Maybe it's because I ran NNM before that. Idk. Anyway, I am acutely aware of it, but aorn my neck feels great.

Hey, me too!

Too bad there's this big bald dude doing funky barbell stuff, blocking the view.

Good. I only brought the subject up because I know you've had neck issues before.

I was actually wondering if the lack of pressing has helped me (related to being neck pain free). Which sucks, because my jerk is weak and I could probably use the extra help that strong (push) pressing provides.

What music is playing in the last half of the jerk video?

Thanks.

Have you experimented with a "wider" split, or even squat jerk? Seems like the way you're doing it requires a lot of strength.

I was tired there, but it was still probably my WOAT split jerks. I aim to drive my front leg further out.

Normally I I think my arms are too long to squat jerk effectively, idk. (6'8"/203cm wingspan).

yeah, fwiw, I think the OHP was the thing that messes up my neck worse than anything else. Back squats are the thing I still do that sometimes messes up my neck. My neck is a lot better since stopping OHPs, and its better when I take time of from back squatting. I think I made better gains bench pressing when I was doing OHPs, but the risk is way more than the reward for me.
