Jerk doubles give me more confidence, oddly enough push presses give me confidence too. It's important to keep looking forward, don't look at the bar. If you look at the bar, your gonna lean backwards and miss the jerk.
Connor Jenkins
rn i train three times a week
a) hang snatch snatch push press ohp back ohp bksqt arm lats/back/core
b) cleans c2j volume jerk snatch grip dl arm lats/core
c) snatch c&j bk sqt arm/core
rn my problem with the jerk is that my legs tend to go neutral instead of splitting outwards jerk doubles heavy?
Jacob Lee
weightlifters look like dog shit unless they are on tons of roids
Angel Lee
It's the only non-meme answer I can give.
Jaxon Murphy
Also, you don't do clean high pulls after cleans? Or snatch high pulls after snatch? Ditch the hang snatch I can assure you that you lean too far backward and you don't keep the bar close.
Henry Gomez
I went at 11:50 pm to get saturday and sunday marked off my calendar. Learn to maximize your gym time and you'll maximize your gains
Chase Davis
lmao are you a psychic I do lean to far backward and Im trying to get the bar close to me during extension
the problem that I have with high pulls is that the timing is never right
Luis Ortiz
Me, just some squats in my home gym. Was going for 10RM, but I miscounted reps and only did 9 :(, will try again tomorrow >the timing is never right huh? then how the fuck do you snatch/clean, the timing is exactly the same
Leo Powell
>can't count to 10
you're gonna make it for sure.
Jaxon Powell
>huh? then how the fuck do you snatch/clean, the timing is exactly the same
high pulls, theres that part after you hit the contact point where youre supposed to extend for a bit, I cant seem to get it right
your supposed to tip-toe and hang and let the bar go upwards but yeah I cant seem to do it well
i think sometime this year. 160 in just a few months
Jack Reed
Keep posting your progress. Loving the vids. More hardcore anime music pls.

Aaron King
How does it feel to be outtotalled by Zack Telander? I mean, his form is near-perfect and his programming is far superior. He's also quite handsome!
Dominic Ortiz
fuck off zack!
Daniel Howard
BB work is underrated, everyone should be doing upper/lower back, triceps, shoulders and core at a minimum
Jaxon Morales
I am not Zack, nor am I affiliated with him or his brand in any way. I am merely an admirer of the sport, and I know a good weightlifter when I see one. Zack makes engaging content pertaining to technique flaws he himself never exhibits, but still explores them to help other, inferior, lifters as the selfless coach he is. Truly an admireable character. And no, I did not make my own weightlifting motivation video and uploaded it to an alt-account.
I would if I could, also, I am not the only one posting him so I have some competition it seems.
Henry Nguyen
Kono should be the template for natty training methods.
Easton Harris
Bump
Logan Richardson
Oh i thought these threads were a thing of the past. nice to see that somebody is still making them. has been eternities since i last posted in an /owg/. got back into lifting 3 Months ago. I got the 2ookg training total just before christmas. In the upcoming 4 week cycle i will snatch 100 and cnj 125. getting stronger again is pretty exciting.
Tyler Martin
manlet on roids, not impressed
Parker Lewis
They were, nice that they're back though. The rest of this board is worse than ever before sadly, unbrowsable
I cringed so hard at this video that I injured myself
Brandon Jones
guy on the right is a unit
James Morgan
Zack l know you’re here just tell me how big is Clarence’s dongle?
Joshua Cox
God they look like shit
Angel Reed
Clarence posts here too I bet He's the owwww guy
Jace Foster
I did >Front squat 6x90-5x100-4x110-3x120-2x130-3x100 pause >Press 6x60-5x65-4x70x2x75 >chins 4 sets of 8 with 20kg
Leo Taylor
Good training, mirin' chin up. Height/weight?
Carter Garcia
Femanon here, is it just me or does anyone else think Zack is really hot and good looking?
Jose Bell
179cm and 79k bw best i got for one is 50kg on the chins
Adam Lopez
meant for
Jose Brooks
Good weight for your height, long term bulking plans? I think natty limit for 179cm is about 85-86 with 10%bf but don't shoot me if I'm off by 2kg.
Eli Sanders
Forgot to ask, what's your snatch/C&J?
Lincoln Bell
>long term bulking plans None at the moment Trying to back squat 200kg, bench 3pl8. My best jerk is 95 or 97 kg, i can't remember the exact weight, i just remember being pissy i couldn't get 100. Best clean is 80 and my best snatch is 60. I usually just do hi pulls to chest with a snatch grip. As you can tell i don't really train the oly lifts that much, but it is way comfier her than /plg/ or the rest f this board. Probably will start training the o lifts more as soon as my back stops being broken.
James Wood
Horrendous numbers for how strong you are. I made the switch from powerlifting to olympic weightlifting and never looked back. Also never tweaked my back anymore. My back has grown muscles I didn't know it had. Powerlifting just isn't as "whole" as weightlifting, they don't have to be flexible, they aren't explosive, and most of them are unironically fat (went to see a PL meet, like 7/10 people were fat powerlifters).
Anthony Cook
By doing the clean I have only done it like 4-5 times ever. I just want to fit in. How should I go about starting the o lifts. I will probably train the hi pull and clean.
Brayden Adams
Also I tweaked my back at judo. It got bad in my sleep, layed on it wrong
Jace Wood
>fuck Zack Don’t mind if I do. >tfw no professional oly coaching guitar playing bf How do I fix this?
6x3 cleans 3x3 high pulls (7,5kg more on each set, set 3 is 22,5kg higher than the cleans) once a week. Also try to get your powerclean and push press up. For video's on technique and programming, look at the OP, it's a good program and you'll get strong doing it. You might want to do a different squat program depending on where you're at.
The programming is in there (including sets and reps) but you need the whole article to puzzle it together as he didn't add it to the template. Switch out incline bench press for 5x3 push press for extra jerk gains.
Owen Bennett
Have you tried cracking your back? Worked for me. If not, see a chiropractor/osteopath.
i found schtangist on ig. he's lost all his gains and he plays drums in a band now. looks like he hasn't snatched in like 4 years. depressing as fuck honestly
Knew what they were, just wanted to make sure this: was the case
Elijah Walker
Bumping at work
Tyler Mitchell
I look worse lmao
Cameron Smith
Trying to brogram the Olympic lifts into my progam. Day 1 I squat and bench. Day 2 is pressing assistance Day 3 Is deadlift and front squat Day 4 Is another bench Day Day 5 is a heavy front squat Day Day 6 Is a deadlift light day and some presses.
Was going to do oly day in the weekends (days 5-6) and one other day.
Probably do hang cleans on the deadlift day.
Caleb Clark
Are you still just fucking around or are you making progress again?
Christian Cox
I can tell you that weightlifting and benching don't go well together. But if you must, do weightlifting before you bench. Don't do hang cleans pls, do power cleans instead.
Grayson Johnson
> These guys spend 6 days a week in the gym and look like that
Colton Walker
Shut the fuck up zack
Zachary Russell
I unironically look like the guy on the left but with more hair. I need to improve my diet, holy shit. I have some muscle because I rock climb but it's under this layer of fat.
Camden Harris
Some muscle is just as bad as no muscle. Hit the weights fat ass.
IMO, powerfarting is just an excuse to be an obese food addict. I like doing the o-lift b/c it's about strength AND explosiveness, which carries much better to other sports IMO.
