That's a great lockout. Any stretches or tips for working on oly style lockouts, I would like to improve my press form.
I'm thinking I need to go to an oly trainer.

I think it would feel....farkin heavy....lol, but it was good at gym everyone stopped and was cheering me on, helps heaps.
My aim for the year is a 120kg clean, if i manage to jerk that, I would be amazingly happpy!!! just need heaps of technique practice, and a bit more confindnce.., ohh and to get stronger, does that matter.??

I only do Oly lifts for fun, so I will just keep doing what i enjoy doing, no pressure. I find it enjoyable because its not just about brute strength, its a pleasant change from powerlifting..for my extra day.

Well done sparticus!,
lat week I attended a 3 hour oly lifting session, run by Ben Turner, it was really good, I learnt heaps, But need to unlearn a bit as well, lol
So wont be as focused on 1 rm, for a while rather learning some technique, and conquering the movements...hopefully my next vid here is 100+

Ben coached me for a while..
I think he's done as a lifter, I think family and injuries will stop him from coming back to his best...
It's no secret that he is pretty unreliable, I think everyone he coached permanently has left him, he may just wana do clinics with crossfitters now

I don't need to go into it in much detail on an online forum, but there's probably a reason he has no one anymore..
The guy went to a crossfit seminar instead of coaching his best athlete at a comp which was his last chance to qualify for comm games trials...
Strong priorities are strong.. And piss poor
