So how do I get more hip flexion?

You’re not getting into enough hip flexion comparatively to those two and other lifters. Relatively speaking you have more knee flexion and not...

Excuse the noob post, but why do you want to change your position? What is wrong with having a more upright torso and hips forward like you do? I've...

Oct 21 CGP -meh workout, still recovering from cold Snatch + Hang snatch 80x(1+3)x2 90x(1+3)x2 95x(1+1)

Look up girth brooks on IG...

I think you're over think and analyzing it. You're feet is spread wider then some and that makes your torso mote vertical... Don't over think it

I would never try to mimic Olexsiys position because for a big guy, he actually pulls very unlike many euros more like the chinese with lots of quads...

I like one of those coaches...

I’m 99% sure I have them among my collection of program spreadsheets. I’m on my phone so dm me your email and I can check when I get home to my...

Oct. 21 CGP SNATCH 40x3x3 50x3 60x3

Yes, I'm actually looking forward to keeping things simple and straightforward for a little while. I'll have to look at adding RDL's and/or GH...

Heaviest snatch, clean/jerk, and back squat of the program so far Week 7 This week had the highlight of doing a 440 lb/200 kg back squat on...

Interesting...hope it's gonna be a good experiment/experience. I think you should also consider getting rid of knee support, extra heel height (if...

Well you have to understand that it is a hormonal response. This will be largely dependent on your metal state in regards to the lift. There won't be...

If there was an objective scientific way to actually measure this, I can't imagine that heavy squatting would be more taxing in terms of the...

I tried to find an objective way to define “taxing” and all I could think of was energy expenditure. Supertraining(Mel Siff, not Mark Bell) somehow...

It won’t replace a coach watching you lift all the time, but a service like that sure could’ve saved me a lot of technique heartache when I first...

I would look at "taxing" in three different ways. 1. Stress on the muscles 2. Stress on the connective tissue 3. Stress on the endocrine system...

Your knees are just tracking your feet which are flared out significantly. You could try pulling with your feet forward, and hopefully they would...

Oct. 17 SQUAT - warm ups 295x3x5 POWER CLEAN

Plus 29 in the 87+. By comparison, a similar breakdown for the men looks like: Lightweights (55, 61, 67): 85 Middleweights (73, 81, 89): 138...

I'd say that's a fairly accurate description of a lot of my lifting, so you were right in that from just the one video. I do the little swing on a...

Would you say you are a quad dominant person? Maybe a bit of an imbalance between back strength and leg strength? Only thing I see in the video is...

Any idea how to turn this into those? What I'm seeing is my hips are too far forward, maybe some softness in my back, my catch posture is wrong...

https://youtu.be/82EF6uwFbnM Feels like the rhythm is off, I'm not sure where. Thoughts? this is 75% of an (ugly) old max. For reference it is...

More likely(hopefully) the A session will be 10 -12 lifters , with the remaining groups up to 16 or so. Who is doing the TV broadcast these days?

Is there anybody who enjoys 18 lifters sessions, either from an athlete, coach, referee or audience perspective? They're exhausting for everyone...

IMHO there's still a major difference though, W45 would be fine if Olympic. There are 42 entries at W49 versus 23 at W87. The participation...
