I think it would be really cool to see other weightlifting competitions use this format. There are more areas for drama throughout the competition with the second attempt with time running out and the tiebreaker. One might also say it does a better job of determining the best weightlifter as everyone lifts the same weights. I was there live and it was definitely the highlight of the weekend.

I love oly! I consider myself a beginner working on 50 kg snatches, my max clean and jerk is 70 kg but I am absolutely confident that when I get my technique better and lift more consistent I can do so much better with my current physique.

Lower hips starting, chin through (stack your body and posture) in the catch and move around the bar and you’ll go a long way. Quite a few brutes got a long way but some of those (not simple by any means after your motor patterns have been established a certain way for so long) fixes would dramatically raise their numbers.
