Managed to sneak in a quick lifting session yesterday though with six hours and sleep and being hung over (don't know how decaf does this): Hang clean (above knee): 40x3 50x3 60x3 70x3 Clean: 70x3 80x3 90x3 95x1 100x1 Cleans felt pretty good, and will be going for 105 and 110 next time, when I'm hopefully feeling better | ||

Well, it will have to wait till I go to college in a couple of months. I just found out that the fitness centre of the University of Amsterdam has an olympic weightlifting club. And that is one of the 15 there are in the whole country. Lucky! | ||

I doubt there's even 15 unis in america with lifting clubs. I'd start working on mobility and basic technique with an empty bar asap though! | ||

It felt effortless, like I got lucky and hit really good positions lol.I should take a day and go for max on c&j before snatches. Whenever I max out on both I get wayyyy too caught up on the snatches then I get tired and can't go as heavy on the c&j haha. | ||

Only after 4 weeks of the new strength cycle and I'm seeing some good progress. Coach thinks my elbow unlocking may be due to some sort of shoulder imbalance or tightness so we'll be working on that with the start of the next cycle. I won't complain though, PR 2.5kg snatch, 2.5kg cnj, 5kg total, 2.5kg and 5kg squat (no video sorry) without any tapering off. | ||

high pull power clean hang clean from above knee These I do as part of my regular workout: FS heavy 1-rep FS with pause at bottom SLDL press I guess I'm still not 100% committed to olys, but I do them as part of my 'augmented' SS (i.e. doing them first with more emphasis). If you've got a good schedule, please share it, I'm all ears! | ||
