What you said makes sense and I just need to put it into practice. i advise increasing weight a lot during session to get a stronger feel for biomechanics. for powerclean i didnt start to get a feel for it till i went above 40-50kg. also i think learning powerclean/clean will help snatch a lot (tho i dont snatch) | ||

@ff I'm avoiding cleans at the moment because it aggravates my SI. | ||

Kaoreal, try power jerk + ohs to get the feel of it. Maybe i should rewrite the OP, I havent looked at it in years. | ||

I joined in the middle of a squat maxing cycle which has been cool. There's been a lot of focus on Snatch technique which has been very beneficial but I've not had a chance to do C+J with them yet. Many of my problems are being ironed out (bending arms being the first big one, currently working on getting the full shrug in) but my main problem is with keeping my chest up during Cleans. Does anyone have any advice for that? My shoulders are curving forwards and it's messing everything else up. I have some exercises to try to fix it but was wondering if anyone else had other suggestions. ---- For max squats today, I'm hoping to hit somewhere between 120kg and 130kg =D (BW is 60). Did 115 3x3 on Monday (new PB) Edit: Hit 130 1RM. Tried 135kg, didn't happen. | ||

I've always been somewhat mobile (i usually attribute it to doing gymnastics at a young age) but I've massively improved it by doing mobility work pretty much every day over the last three years. | ||

I wish I had done gymnastics when I was younger D: Actually I wish I had played any sports when I was younger. Unfortunately, I just suck at sports and my parents never encourage (forced) me to play sports. | ||

Damn good improvement over the last 2 months. Finally PR'd something, first time since summer last year (had a really long layoff because of football). Also first body weight snatch! Last time (and only other time) I snatched 100, I weighed like 102  . | ||

 Some snatch triples from last week. Missed a single at 120 then dropped and worked back up and ended up hitting 125x3 then smoking 130 and close miss at 140 | ||
