EPTI used the instructional videos on Pendlay's website, they seem to be quite good.
Quick question, at the top of the snatch, do you still have a hook grip or do you somehow change the grip on the way up?
I wish I had bigger hands

I have to say, I felt I have quite a good grasp on how the snatch should work. Cleans were not that great, I need way more wrist flexibility, it hurt quite a bit.

I wish I had bigger hands I let go of the hook grip when I catch, i dont think it matters much | ||

I'm currently doing 3 hour meal increments, with minimal carbs until thursday, my carb load day! I follow the arnold schwarzenegger meal and lifting guide, and it seems to work quite well for me | ||

if you cut as many calories as i do on a weekly average your bound to lose weight even without cardio hehe.. i have some gains on selective lifts like my deadlift as previously stated and chins/weighted dips but the latter is mroe than likely a side effect of my weight loss | ||

Bench: 195x6,205x6,215x6 (little help on last 2 reps). Incline: 135x6, 155x6, 155x4 Military: 55 lb barbells x 6, 55x6, 60x4 Triceps and other shoulder exercises Then I ran a mile in 7:40! Last time I ran a mile a couple weeks ago I struggled to do 8:55, but I guess a few swim workouts and an outdoor run workout since then has significantly boosted my cardio! Very pleased about this. | ||

Today's workout: Flat bench: 65kg x 5, 75kg x 3, 85kg x 1 and 3 singles of 90kg. First cycle of 3/5/1 done and it was easy like it should've been. Moving up the working max to 90kg (from 86) for next cycle. OHP: 3 sets of 55kg x 5 (+2,5kg and felt easy to boot!) Incline BB BP: 40kg x 8, 50kg x 8, 60kg x 6 and 70kg x 2. I hate this movement (since I suck at it) and it just feels strange. Needs more work. btw this is hillarious! I think TLHF is spreading out: | ||

My initial goal is to work it up to 10-10-10. Will I make quicker progress doing assisted chins for starters so I can get in a couple more reps? work it up to 8-8-8 then start doing weighted chinups with +5kg/10 pounds | ||

"Gotta eat to keep that metabolism up bro!" GTFO. On a side note, I walked around my neighborhood for an hour today. Plan to do this every saturday. Low intensity cardio + sun = win. EDIT: by the way, good job on everybody playing the games! Hell yeah. | ||

I am no expert, but when you want to be good at sprits i would advise you to do small quick runs, like 200m x as many times you want, or even 100m. And 30min run for football player(see what i did there!!)? The game is 90 minutes long, i would recommend at least 7-8km jog or 1h. My 2 cents...but i am no expert. For my training, had to skip friday, 5h canoeing is hard! , played a bit of basketball today, but i didnt feel good, so not too much. | ||
