Thanks so much man. That support means a lot to me

@@ChikinJake no sweat! Appreciate the content....serious inspiration man. So elite!

Big preesh homie

Preesh homie

Yeah I feel that but we all start there. My form from 3 years ago was just as scary if not worse

Thank you for the thank you

@@ChikinJake question: is the limit of my overhead squad the limit of my snatch? I cannot do it with 50kg but with 40kg and 40kg I can also snatch

This question is very dependent on your body type. For me, I put a lot more focus into my squats and bench the first few years of training. Because of this, I’m currently rely more on my strength than my technique in oly lifts. With this excess of strength, if I get under a snatch I almost always have it without question since I have such a strong overhead squat but I have started switching more towards focusing on technique over strength. From the sound of it, you’re more reliant on your technique over overall strength so you may whip under a heavy snatch faster than me but it’s more difficult for you to stand it up. There is no better way to lift to me. If you think your oly lifts would benefit from training back, front, and overhead squats more then go for it and see what happens. What I’ve learned from this sport is that the majority of getting better is committing to trial and error while having your body’s health as the main priority to reduce risk of injury while you try new ways of training. Your body will always be changing so if you’re reaching a peak right now it might be beneficial to focus more on your squats for a while and when you peak on your squats you can always go back to more focus on the oly lifts.

@@ChikinJake I am sorry for not finding any good words for expressing my thankfullness. So let me just say Thank you a lot!! It will definitley help a lot! Greetings from Germany!

Glad the perspective was useful. Appreciate all the support

Great question. So snatching should only be done if you want to train Olympic lifting specifically. If your an athlete, you don’t need anything beyond power cleans since they’re safer and train that same explosiveness. The only thing I recommend to everyone is that you train your mobility so just make sure you’re able to comfortably ass to grass squat with good clean form for your body’s longevity in the sport.

So for context I train snatch, cl+jk, back squat, and bench press for strength. So the days I go heavier on snatch and cl+jk are meant to isolate strength in those lifts and like you said I do more technical work with oly lifts when I have back squat or bench so I can isolate the strength in squat and bench those days without over fatiguing myself. I like resting after benching since bench strains my shoulders the most and is tough to combine with oly lifts if I’m fatigued.

About 210-215lbs. I appreciate that support. I actually haven’t worn a belt in over 2 years and I swore off sleeves and wraps about 3 months ago so I have no excuses now and I feel much more confident in my overall ability to lift

Appreciate that man. I definitely think I’m primed for it right now. At the moment my goal for the end of this program is 215kg x2 so I’m very excited to see the progress

Yeah I met him once a while ago and his coach more recently. He’s a very cool and impressive guy especially for his size

Appreciate that. I’ve been trial and error programming myself for the past three years so if you want you can dm me on insta and I’ll send you a pic of the current program. Currently it’s about 3 months with 3 blocks of training increasing weight each time in specific ways depending on the day.

@@ChikinJake sure! Am a nerd when it comes to programs! Just like to read up a lot..

Totally get it. Me and my lifting buddy have cross analyzed each others programs a bunch of times as well as the big ones online to see some new perspective
