She beat out that disgusting 39 year old mtf trans dude that transitioned in his 30's at 2017 world's, so I have much more respect for her now
Luke Gray
is correct, bad catching usually comes from an issue in the second/third pull. Keep the bar close to you throughout the entire movement, practice high pulls. A high pull/snatch complex will help out, too If it's a stabilization issue, snatch balances and overhead squats will help
Jacob Harris
Did my first meet this weekend.
I'm an 85 (weighing 83) and I went conservative so I didn't get my feelings hurt my first time out - went 6/6, snatched 70-80, clean and jerked 100-110. Best in training is 88/116.
Overall, it was a less intimidating experience than I would have assumed. The room was pretty packed (100+ people watching at any given time) but when you're a nobody it's pretty easy to stay in your mental space and just do your lifts. I was originally planning to go 90-100 but one of my coaches convinced me I was just being stupid, and she was right.
I focused on blocking out any negative thoughts that would give me the jitters because I was worried I would forget how to snatch if that happened. Kanye on the headphones and coaches doing the counting for me made it really easy.
A+ experience, hope to break 200 at a meet next month.
Levi Morris
I thinks it’s a balance issue
Hunter Gray
Should you ohs in the same stance as your snatch catch? I catch fairly wide is that ok?
Doing pic related, I now lift enough weight in the CJ that I get too tired to safely do a second rep without taking a bit of time to catch my breath from the first one. Wat do?
tripled 85 and doubled 90 (for the third time) so hoping I'll be good for 100 by mid April
getting alarmingly fat tho

Nice m8. But think about that magical 150. I bet you can't be that happy now that you're pretty close to it.
What is this. My coach made me go for PR's in my first meet. I think i managed 95% in snatch and 101% in C&J. But nvm i'm happy you enjoyed it. First comp is always scary. And i'm glad you aren't one of those who skip competitions because they're "too weak".
You're losing tightness trying to mimic clarence. Don't do it unless you have the flexibility.
Angel Ramirez
a lot of coaches just want you go to 6/6. I think my first meet I only went up to 90% on both lifts, but then I was coaching myself. Just powered everything
wide is fine. you're pushing through your knees too much.

I'm doing power cleans for starting strength, five sets of three every other week. My traps are sore every time I do them. Would increasing the frequency but keeping total volume the same still work? Like one working set for every workout.

FUCK THIS FUCKING GAY ASS SHIT HOW THE FUCK DO I FIX BUTT WINK HELP PLSSSSS
In my opinion, starting to do snatch and C&J just like that is not a great way to leanr the lifts. With a coach we worked a few weeks just pulling / doing turn overs from hip / knee, then we worked some weeks doing all kind of partials, OHS, mobility stuff and so on. After a few months he put me on a program and constantly made changes depending on my technique.
So what do i think about cookie cutter programs for WL, especially those that only have the full lifts?
Meh

Lower back tightness ? So I should squat a littler higher ? How would Improve flexibility ?
Noah Sanders
Nooe
Michael Gutierrez
Where do I push ?
Hunter Collins
Keep your core tight and strong, try to feel your lower back arched. Maybe you have to squat hgher, maybe it's just a form / tightness issue.
There's plenty of videos on youtube about squat flexibility.
Elijah Adams
keep quads working, sink through hips.
Asher Parker
Trying to decide if I should lift today, I'm kinda hungover
I appreciate the input. You've given me some good insight on what it is I should be looking for. Thanks.
Mason Hughes
Just do it

I feel like a bitch using a belt, but I did for the other sets and things felt More intergrated.

I felt I was pushing through my glutes and hips in that vid, why do you say I was pushing trough your knees ?

>failed to snatch 100 >cleaned 120 for first time but failed the jerk even though my strict press is 100+ because my jerk tek is laughably bad Overall not a bad day
Your letting the bar get away from you to much then your having to jump forward to catch it.
Evan Williams
Yeah, it's either that or I swing it back so much that I lose it behind my shoulders like a complete jackass.
Waiting just a bit on the final pull/jump/triple extension, and pulling it my into the hips before fully extending, has helped considerably. This problem used to be worse.
I'm thinking my weight might be getting a bit too far back on my heels (you can see my toes break off the ground slightly earlier in the pull), which leads to my pelvic thrusting the bar forward a bit as my upper body pulls backwards a bit. If my weight was a TEENY bit more forward, I might stay more directly over the bar and pull straight up.
Parker Butler
snatched 42, couldnt get under the 45. Also I paused in the mid thigh hang position to maintain good positions. How do I a) develop stronger second pull b) get over the fear of pulling under the bar? For a) I think I'm gona do power snatches and get stronger at squats. Squat is only ~90kg now. Maybe for b) I could do some high hang snatches?
Camden Gray
what the fuck kinda plates are those? reds are supposed to be 25kgs
shifting back angle to early, second pull too low , arms too tight and dont shrug so stiff
Ryder Jenkins
why are you wearing a belt for your snatch? Your contact for the snatch looks almost exactly the same as for your clean
Joseph Roberts
how do I find my correct snatch grip width? I keep reading that it's when you have the bar sitting above your hip bone when standing but for me that means my hands are right on the collars which absolutely murders my wrist, wat do?
Noah Ross
You're all weak autistic larpers
Jacob Murphy
when you have the bar hanging in your hands standing and you can lift your knee up to 90 degrees, you have the correct position
Adam Price
>powerlifting A "sport" for permabulk inflexible microdick low-T cuckolds who were bullied at school.
a + b) Do snatches from knee and hip. Either from hang or blocks. Also incorporate drop snatches (they are great to begin the workout).
Don't do powers if you're afraid to get under the bar. I do lots of powers but i fucking love to pull myself under the bar because my second pull also sucks.
Also do some posterior chain stuff. Helps with the second pull (hamstring and glute strength are important here)
Landon Walker
>posterior chain stuff are good morning ok? what kind of weight/repsets should I do?
Sebastian Reed
Reminder you have to be able to front squat 180kg ATLEAST once to post here
Jason Ortiz
looks like you lost shoulder tightness near the end of the clean.
also consider doing more heavy clean pulls since you stopped pulling well before you reached max extension.
not a bad lift tho, good job.
