Sitting at 90kg atm... going to compete in July or August at 85kg. I need a 245kg total to qualify for Canadian nationals. decaf you're going to the Arnold right? What's the total you're looking to hit at the meet? | ||

Opening total is 290 which means I have to hit at least 125/145 (pretty much automatic for me) I'm going to try to open around 130/155 and shoot for at least a 300 total. | ||

What international level athlete is clean? In any sport - never mind the lifters. Damn impressive lift though. | ||

In fact... I haven't maxed in back squat in like half a year.. I might actually beat my best back squat with front squat in the next three weeks, lol (145, I suck at back squat). And Ivanov is like definition of brute power... No belt, sleeves, or anything and a frigging power jerk. He also looks like a damn gladiator. | ||

Well at least at the Olympics and International comps you can be pretty sure they're clean at the time of the lifts even if they don't train that way. Took a side view of a 160 clean (failed jerk) so I could check out the bar path. Turned out to be one of my best heavy cleans(except my 150 cj before i absolutely crushed out of nowhere) and I already front squatted 180. Looks pretty good to me, ill run it through kinovea when I get the chance. Since I changed my catch/rack position I'm finishing more vertical, keeping the bar closer, and bouncing out of the whole better (I've never one bounced 160 before) | ||

 I want to start olympic weight lifting and I read through the op and some of the pages. I have some questions. 1) could you do the given program as a 3 day on, 1 day off routine? (I don't like only training only 3 days a week) 2) Is there any way someone could point me in the right direction for finding someone who teaches the lifts in northeast PA? 3) im probably just being a dummy, but I really dont understand what my rep ranges and sets are supposed to be for this type of lifting. *Im not a complete beginner to weight lifting, but I have never done any type of olympic style lifting. Im pretty sure the only exercises I've done consistently in the OP's routine are push press and back squat. | ||

Both decaf and DimSum are east coast so they should know some good coaches in PA. About training frequency... since you've already been strength training, you can train pretty frequently. I would say even 6 days a week if you can since in the beginning the weights you will be doing will not be very high due to focusing on proper technique. | ||

I will email them when the info is actually up and if I can't then I will fly there and guilt trip 'em! (btw I changed my handle, was getting strange because I never use that one anymore!) | ||

It doesnt look like there are any places in my area Would you recommend I do the program in your OP, or would a different one be more suitable? | ||
