I clean and jerked 40kg last week are you guys proud of me
Jeremiah Carter
lol My squat is going up pretty fast and so is my clean. But my snatch has been stuck at 55 for a long time now cause I can't get low. I started oly lifting in january. I also need to fucking bulk. I weigh 65kg at 170cm pic related.
>Clarence could squat 256KG at 18 >I'm going to my first session in 2 days at 20 why even bother
Charles Cooper
compare yourself to who you were yesterday, not to others.
Joseph Nguyen
He isn't a weightlifter anymore. If you are, then just go overhand, for the same reason you wouldn't low bar squat
Aaron Gray
Do any of you practice any combat sports as well as do intense cardio alongside oly lifting? I want to try my hardest to do all three of these things regularly, but I can't find the will or the time to do so lately, also i'm afraid that it would take a toll on my body (knees being destroyed from heavy squats and sprinting, brain going poo from combat sports).
I just want to be the strongest, fastest, deadliest person in my hometown...
Should I add power snatches and power cleans to my routine?
Liam Ortiz
yes
Samuel Murphy
When and how?
Michael Harris
During your workout
Xavier Thompson
Dimas is a meme. Before the realignment 77's were outperforming him
Dominic Lee
Bump
Samuel Hughes
My core feels so weak after a break and my back hurts Fuck my life
Ayden Carter
What realignment?
Brayden Sanchez
What's up with your wrist?
Anthony Davis
Bump
Camden Thompson
Did you miss when all of the weightclasses changed?
Nathan Carter
What a fucking surprise that people constantly improve in sports because technique, equipment and roids progress
Kevin Cook
klokov is one sexy beast, no homo
Josiah Walker
Exactly, just pointing it out. Just looked back at the 1980 Olympic results recently and they were fucking laughable
Jordan Myers
Tbf pyrros snatched more than tian tao did in competition
Logan Smith
Lu Xiaojun came pretty close to surpassing his snatch.
Jaxon Moore
That's what you call that? How the fuck does that change anything? His first major comps were in 1992 already in the 82.5 class. 4 Olympic medals are 4 Olympic medals. 3 of them gold. And 3 golds in World Championships on top of that. He competed and he won all of them. How is that "a meme" you fucking dipshit?
Evan White
He wouldn't stand a chance in today's era
Cameron Rivera
Wonder what pyrros' best snatch in training was I know lu has hit 180
Oliver Rogers
Care to explain why, exactly? His record snatch at 82bw is 180kg. Lu Xiaojun at 77bw did 177kg as his pr. They are a close match.
Aaron Watson
He said in a documentary he once snatched 192 or smt. But he was at 92bw. just yt seach "dimas documentary" it's pretty interesting
William Torres
He would though. Like I said he snatched more in competition than tian did. Both as 85. He also held the cj World record until rio
Lincoln Gray
Which is?
Luke Gonzalez
Why compare him to Tiao More carryover
Joseph Hall
Ah, I see
Joshua Green
Because he won silver in rio and is still a relevant lifter?
Joseph Lopez
Right, but he wasn't the best weightlifter in the 85 kg class, the 89kg class or the 96kg class, so why not compare Dimos to the best in a potential class he may compete in?
Carson Peterson
...
William Clark
That's just snatch. Rostami in the same weight class beats his total and crushes his c+j
Jace Taylor
Right, rostami won by one kilo. Pyrros would've had a shot.
Nicholas Ross
Dimas beat total at 85 was 390, which Rostami has beaten 3 times
Bentley Murphy
Doesn't make pyrros a dogshit lifter and not competitive. Pyrros wasn't pushed as much and his best lifts total 395.5
Logan Gomez
>best lifts total At the same event? If not it doesn't matter
Jace Adams
This whole comparison doesn't matter. The 85 lifters in rio weren't light years ahead
Cameron Green
Maybe, but Dimas wouldn't win
Wyatt Morris
He could. And podium still means competitive
Leo Gonzalez
I guess, but he doesn't deserve to be considered in the GOAT conversation considering someone like Naim is still so far ahead of everyone else
Benjamin Lee
>people unironically arguing over 1kg differences find a better sport and get a life, losers
Austin Murphy
It's more like 3kg
Nicholas Perry
>retard coping that he lacks the resources/skill to oly lift Every thread.
Oh I thought you were dissing the whole sport. Yeah well I agree with you about this retarded "dImAs iS a mEmE" asshole and the discussion
Chase Rodriguez
Can people post body? I already posted mine @ It'd be fun to have a /owg cbt
Jayden Lee
Yeah, I do grappling and oly and all I can say is you're going to have to go lighter with one or the other. I'm part of a club so my focus is more on oly than grappling, but I still go to grappling. I just dont go as hard.
Josiah Young
He isn't the best ever. If you think he is the best, he is a meme
Justin Jones
How do I practice going to depth on a 1 RM max effort on back squats. Are there any assistance exercises that help stability going parallel at least.
I don't see what age has to do with it. I don't do well going ATG on new back squat PR weight.
Kayden Rogers
Well just go deeper in squats to develop the muscles that help in that position lol. But going deeper you will handle less weight.
Camden Lewis
Read it again
Andrew Rodriguez
If you want to do 1RM back squats full depth you gotta train back squats to full depth
Tyler Evans
I did. He isn't the best
Noah Cooper
not my wrist exactly but my left hand. due to my fuck up in the clean I feel pain whenever I apply pressure where my index finger meets the palm of my hand. that pain is felt on my index finger and thumb. i've been resting it and massaging it and hurts much less now. my coach has had me doing bodybuilding shit (plenty of back squats, rows ,deadlifts, ...) while this heals up.
Kayden Howard
Asen Zlatev is the GOAT
Zachary Watson
let me write it open for you first you claimed that pyrros dimas is a meme and everyone else would outlift him nowadays then I told how that wasn't true and he would still be competitive in todays games then you moved the goalposts and said "yeah but he isn't best" which wasn't the original argument I never claimed he is the GOAT
Nicholas Gutierrez
in what lifts does the wrist hurt?
Kayden Thompson
He is a meme if you do think he is the GOAT
Sebastian Adams
holy shit are you fucking retarded?
Luis Thompson
What's up with that complex where you push press and stay on your toes? Also, what squat rack do you have?
Jacob Bailey
Post body. Now.
Carter Rogers
If I start lifting at 20 will I ever be elite?
Parker Nelson
no u
Carter Sanchez
hmm maybe try roiding
Daniel Hall
nice idea but people here only have decent legs and traps
Carson Harris
Why?
Jackson Mitchell
He's just baiting you
Alexander Walker
in order to compete with Clarence, duh
Zachary Ward
But he's roiding too
Zachary Morgan
how do u think your gona beat a roider nattty?
Elijah Barnes
with heart and determination
Angel Thompson
there's no denying that oly lifting is the best form of lifting, but goddamn do our threads fucking suck, the powershitter and roider threads kick our fucking asses everyday
Matthew Torres
It's not a competition
Bentley Sanders
receive of the snatch, front racking the bar (receiving cleans, normal front squating, ...), dips, ... any lift where pressure is applied to the palm of my hand near my index finger.
Ethan Barnes
I dont think there is many of us, as least compared to the frauds or powersharters
