Fairly certain I've injured my labrum in my right shoulder. Woke up yesterday and it felt like garbage and had my roomate(chiro) look at it. It felt like shit this weekend while i was snowboarding buy was fine mon-wednesday. Probably still gonna try to compete tomorrow because it feels pretty solid in the snatch and clean and jerk positions...just pretty much nowhere else. Should probably go see an ortho :-/
how reasonable is it to eat off wood instead of your tummy?

Are you sure it's not your body telling you "Shug down a beer or two, bro"?

If you get injured...where is the hope for us normal mortals?

You raise a valid point, it's been five days since my last beer.

Did this a few times:


OMG it helped so much. Right after I do it i can move my arm around perfectly with no pain. The pain has set back in a bit but it's definitely improved. Fucking kelly is a wizard

If you are serious about lifting and in the game long enough you will be injured eventually. There are no invulnerable lifters.

Hopefully it's not a serious injury decaf. Kellyls mobilization techniques should help.
The unrealistic sound of these propositions is indicative, not of their utopian character, but of the strength of the forces which prevent their realization.

Two questions for you Oly lifters or others who have experience with cleaning.

I noticed this past week that I am awful at the upper body portion of cleaning. I was doing hang cleans and I couldn't even hit a rep of a weight that I could usually full clean about 20 or 25 times. So that leads me to my questions about cleaning.

1) What are some exercises that I can do after my normal squat, clean, bench, deadlift etc. that can help me build strength in the muscles needed to get the pull in my clean more powerful?
2) Where should my hands be placed on the barbell when cleaning? Would it be different if it was just a clean instead of a full clean & jerk?

Thanks guys

Sounds like you're not getting under the bar fast enough rather than lacking in "upper body" strength.

1) clean grip deadlifts will help you build up weight, front squats are important too. But really you just need to practice a lot to get under the bar quickly

2) stand at the bar with feet squat width apart. start to grab bar, but don't wrap your fingers around it. stick your thumbs out so the tips are against your calves. now hookgrip that shit

I don't use different grips for clean vs c&j, hookgrip! though I do open up once I finish the clean. I usually end up with the bar in just my first 3 fingers, with my pinky in front of the bar (my coach has commented on this being really weird but w/e it works for me) which you should probably try to avoid.

Would need to see a video. But if you are weak in the hang clean, work on the hang clean to make it better.

tofucake, do you compete? Where are you from?

Form check Friiiiiiday.

I just cannot seem to figure out the deadlift. It is really hurting me. Squatting 315 lbs (to parallel), but struggled with 305 yesterday. I changed my form from being a pretty wide (and inefficient stance, I think) to a more narrow and traditional deadlift. I'm not very consistent yet; last week I nailed 300 x 3, yet yesterday I failed on my first attempt at 305. I just can't figure out proper form and what I'm doing wrong.

I took a video. It's a bit off center and I'm wearing black sweatpants (I had no shorts with me) but it was the best I could do at the time. Once I clear mid-knee, you can see my knees shaking like crazy. Hamstring problems? I don't know.

Help me out, please.

Video doesn't work
Most problems in the deadlift after clearing the ground happen because the lifter tries to pull with his back instead of squeezing his glutes (after clearing the ground many ppl relax their glutes and try to "pull" the weight, this might be happening to you)

The deadlift is a butt squeeze while keeping your back straight more than anything. Imagine getting ur abs/lats tight, then load your hamstring against the bar (this pulls the slack of the bar) and then just focus on squeezing your glutes all the way from bottom to lockdown.
