I did the base cycle, so 5 weeks but i skipped a lot of rest days so closer to 3-4 actually

Maybe just redo smolov with my new 1rm and actually have rest days?

WOW PICTURES OF ILYA ILYIN

HOW WONDERFUL

what's up with these avatarfags

>>35093041
ilya is a nice looking man

>>35092984
Once upon a time I thought to myself, "I may never compete with the guys winning medals, but maybe I can at least outlift every woman."

I was sorely mistaken

>>35093041
>Ilyaposting
>avatarfagging

>>>/out/

>>35093064
if you are not the short man in small weight class it is very possible to outlift tatiana with dedication and drug. but they are both key and you may require to be big superheavyweight to be stronger :)

it is still amazement. many in the 105C at championships could be close her records! tatiana herself is only little above 105kg or 108kg so she is very strong.

>>35093081
i knew this can happen. they will complain about not just the nice girl mattie. they will too complain about world champion and record grabber ilya! demons

I wonder if his coach cares about the asymmetry
probably not

>>35093593
what asymmetry do you refer to

>>35093645

he rotates right in nearly every snatch he does

>just noticed hookgrip now selling 7mm knee sleeves for $35 a pair plus shipping
Are these new or am I slow? Looking some sleeves and can't afford the likes of SBD

>>35093656
when he's coming up with the weight overhead or when he's extending? i don't see it honestly

>>35094227

I notice it every single snatch as well.

is there evidence this is impossible without drugs?

>>35095371
Pretty sure clarance admitted to using gear i nthe past.

>>35095371
yes, see: every professional weightlifter ever

why don't any of them continue to make linear progress once they have big totals? because they've taken all the shit they can take

clarence used to be natty. after his surgery he clearly isn't anymore, as evidenced by the massive strides he took in putting up higher numbers on his classics

that is not evidence. if all of them use drugs and have used them for decades, how can you determine the limits of natural progression?

>>35095479
the limits of natural progression don't matter in this scenario, because clarence is not natural

those are the same exact sleeves for more 1/5th what hookgrip is selling them for with their brand stamped on it

if you get a smaller sized than your quads are the stitching on top is gonna get ripped

>it takes effort to write coherently
low i.q subhuman

>>35095488
yes they do, since it was said "put like 20kgs on your already near elite level total in like a month" as evidence that clarence is not natural

i already know people say he is not natural. repeating it is not helpful

either post a link to him admitting he is not natty or prove that putting "20kgs on your already near elite level total in like a month" is not possible naturally

comm. if you're still here, this is the video i was referring to.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q7PRO4H6GCQ

>>35095403
>he clearly isn't anymore

>implying he was natty before that

look at his old videos where he squats his old 1rm for a 10rm just a few months later

>>35094747
yes theyll fuck your shit up dont do it

>>35095545
the evidence is right there in front of you. if you just take his dick out of your mouth for a second it'll become pretty clear

>>35095502
hit 80/100 after 6 months
travelling and no lifting/eating for 3 months
6 months or so after getting back i got to 95/120
regression, injury, stagnation,more injuries and regression for around 2 years since then

Little question:
When doing backsquats, is it ok if I feel my lower back? I use my quads but I feel my back a bit too, sometimes it hurts just a little. My back it's straight.
Is it mobility? Am I using hip drive? Or I'm being a form maniac?

>>35095576

you failed to prove your claim

No, they just now came out with 7mm neoprene sleeves, same thickness as SBD and Rehband

>>35095639
k good for you

I'm just gonna hate on Caladan for a moment here and hope you can all agree with me. This shit cunt says he's gonna squat 5 days a week because he has shit squats and clearly needs to improve on them both Form and strength wise and then one cunt goes "Oi cunt Chinese cunts only squat twice a week" and he changes his whole thought process and is like fuck yeah I'm only gonna squat twice a week how good is this. I'm not saying he should squat 5 days or two im just saying that if I'm getting an ice cream and I badly think I need a cornetto and some cunt goes nah mate paddle pop, would I go yeah mate you're fucking right? I rest my case

>>35095588
thx bb

>>35095654
thx brah. how's that cum taste?

>>35095665
he said he thinks the way to improve his lifts is through squatting that's why he wanna try squatting more, one guy mentioned dont do it with his fucked knees

me and other people told him squatting isn't the only way to improve lifts in fact squatting less frequently would be better

it's not like he read one thing and instantly changed his mind

get off your high horse

>>35095665

here's how it went down m80
-I (correctly) come to the conclusion that I'm failing my lifts because of inadequate leg strength
-Deduce that I need to improve my squat, and hope that my shit knees can handle it, so talk about running an RSR cycle
-Multiple people point out that you don't have to squat all the time to improve leg strength and can instead do heavy pulls, which would suit my pathology better
-Do independent research, find backing evidence
-Change my protocols with relief because squatting rapes me anyway

If you'd like to point out where I fucked up then by all means

By your logic kali muscle is natty because he claims it.

What is the tutorial how to learn them? I tried some power snatches and they seriously need work along with the cleans.

i have my first meet on the 12th of December and i have to weigh 58kg for that meet.

right now i'm around 59-60 kg and there's two weeks left: this week i would like to keep training hard and next week slow down to have enough power for the meet.

how do i lose those 1-2 kilos while still being able this week to train at full capacity and without draining my body too much before the meet?
i easily lose 1kg of water weight in a couple of days by cutting carbs and drinking a lot, but i am afraid that it will hinder my performance if i'm low on carbs and dehydrated..

the weigh in will be on the day of the meet at 8am to 8:30am, and the meet is around 9am.

>>35099497
how tall are you?

>>35099497
is that morning or evening weight?
1-2 isn't too much you could easily lose that over night, especially if you limit eating and drinking the day before (within reason).
or just do a water cut.
whatever you do it shouldnt affect your performance significantly, just make sure you rehydrate and refuel immediately after weigh in.

How many % should your paused squat be off your 1rm BS?
I just did a 170kg paused high bar for fun, and wonder what my normal high bar should be at.

>>35100939
i reckon 90% ish but this is something i wonder too desu

>>35100939
>should

Impossible to say, depends on how much you rely on the stretch reflex/bounce when squatting

>>35101125
But if your paused squat is close to your regular squat, doesn't that imply an inefficient technique?

>>35101254
Maybe. Not everyone can use the bounce that much

>>35094778
>tfw I don't snatch because I'm shit at it and go to a commercial gym

>tfw 3 weeks in and my coach didnt even teach me the jerk

>>35101925
>tfw 6 months in and my coach didnt even teach me the clean or jerk

i aint even mad

>>35101925
>>35102073
Cleaning the weigth is hard since I always pull like a deadlift and my legs are super weak. Jerks are super easy desu, back tight, internal rotation etc. I can't even OHS the bar though, so that's a horrible mobility and strength issue.

>>35101254
Not necessarily, you may just not have that great a stretch reflex if that's the case

Could tight hips be causing me to subconsciously be catching all my snatches as a power?

>>35103724
yes, i have this exact problem

>>35103724
If it's your hips, it's probably not due to your "subconscious"

>>35103724
>tight hips
yes but what part

>>35103798
I just meant that I can tell myself to get under, I don't feel scared etc, just sometimes I can't catch below paralell for the life of me

Sometimes I can get under lovely though, which made me wonder if hips could play a role cos today they've felt very tight

woah sameee

>>35104732
>>35104724
I'm the guy from above, me too but not intentionally

I've power snatched 5kg under my Max and desu my Max was not caught deep

If I could actually.get under a snatch I wouldn't be utter shit

>>35104780
i think my psn(intentional) is around 70 my best "full" is like 77

i find hangs rly good for getting into a good bottom pos/hitting the bottom well.

>>35104839
Yeah I did my Max full from snatch first and been close to a over bodyweight snatch from hang (I've not been lifting long obvs) which leads me to believe if I can get under from hang but struggle from floor my pull is off?

I think it's largely a flexibility issue my start positions is not great

>>35104780
>>35104839
my best power is 105 but i almost hit 110 too... my best snatch is 117 I think I have 120 soon

>>35104839
>>35105051
I used to be afraid of pulling myself underneath a snatch and then I dropped the bar on my neck

Oddly enough I'm not scared anymore because now I know what it feels like to fail it like that so I can dump it out of the way

High snatches are amazing

what do you do

>>35106539
I do squats, front squats, snatch, clean and jerk, and recently have implemented power snatch/power clean and jerk.

>>35106560
why dont you do any pulls or presses

>>35106591
Once a week or more depending on how tech is looking I do pulls. Time spent fatiguing myself doing pulls and presses is time wasted I could be doing one of the four exercises I said before.

>>35100939
185kg with a pause was really hard for me and my max is 220

is there any reason not to do my bodybuilding routine in oly shoes?
seems silly to bring multiple pairs of shoes to workout

>>35109957

it does seem silly, so just do your bb work in your wl shoes unless you're not doing any weightlifting stuff that day

most weightlifting routines have multiple bodybuilding exercises in them anyway, and bench/OHP actually feel better in heeled shoes IMO

Thank you for resource, watching nao, am currently doing meme torokhtiy program, loving it, have added twenty kilogrammes to total in twelve weeks somehow

"There's no such thing as overtraining, only under recovery" - a lot of people

Do you guys think this is true? I couldn't disagree more

>>35110737
Then you're probably a pussy. Yes it's true.

>>35094148
sheeit that chick almost dun goofed

>>35110737
over training and under recovering are pretty much the same thing, i really can't see a difference its just a saying

>>35110745
Sometimes there's not enough hours in the day to recover properly mate

>>35110745

What happens you have completely exhausted everything there is to recovery huh?

Yo OWG,
Is your push press higher than your jerk, or should it be? Same question concerning BTN snatch grip push press and snatch?
Also my jerk is horrible, good vids?

>>35110737
true, overtraining is v easy to do
undertraining is far more safe and will give better results
overtraining will lead to stalls, regression and injury, and could even make you have to stop weightlifting

>>35100624
liar

>>35107781
This is owg mate noone cares if you're big. You're 110kg and you can't squat more than a 65kg twink you'd be getting looked at with pity in most gyms t.b.h lad

>>35111365
Push press should not be higher than jerk

As a beginner, is it all about eating a ton and volume?

>>35113127
yes

>>35111365

Push press should be more like 75-80% of jerk

everyone in my gym wears the red/black adipowers. i love the way they look, but will probably switch to romaleos just to be different.

does this make me a fag???

>>35113379
Yup

>>35113309
Funny, my push press is like 50-45% of my jerk.

I don't think you guys are doing it right.
jerk is more about getting under than it is about finishing a press.

I jerk 140kg and can only press 72kg

>>35113476
Strict press is often 45-50% of jerk, push press is mostly about legs and ought to be 70-80%

>>35113573
Yeah, I'm talking push press here.

>tfw coach is going to put me on a 6 day a week program

>>35113833
can you share the program

>>35111128
I have the same problem ;_; I'll be doing mobility twice daily for almost three weeks

>>35110756
that "chick" is mattie rogers and she can crush my balls leaving me without pleasure for weeks

>>35114241
no

>>35113743

You can only push press 72 with a 140 jerk? Or strict press?

I think my ratios are pretty normal, 85 strict 115 push 150 jerk

Hey I don't weight lift so I apologise for ruining your thread with my noob questions however I do know you guys know a little on stretching and foam rolling.

I reall wish to keep my lower body more mobile, specially hamstrings and glutes currently.
I've been foam rolling around this area and stretching around said area, groin and hip flexors included but I was wondering...

Is there any good foam rolling and stretching programs I can do on my rest days?
I also need a middle / upperback roll or stretch of something.

I am worried of doing damage to my spine as I have an extra hard and spikes foam roller.

If I buy a lacrosse ball what can I do with it?

Many thanks and I apologise for being so uneducated.

>>35110737
It's true but slowly adapting yourself makes things pretty easy recovery wise.

>my squat keeps increasing 10kg a week
I started at 95kg after 3 weeks im at 125kg

And im not even doing a squat specific routine, can anyone explain this

>>35116108
im assuming you just started squatting? it takes a couple weeks or months even to really get into the lifting range that you should be in.

>>35116222
yes

I weigh 82kg if this matters

>change snatch tech a little bit, become much more consistent
>hit lots of rep PRs
>try hang snatching today
>can't do it the same way, feels unpleasant and more misses

this doesn't really matter right? If I can perform a classic but the variations have become harder then the only thing that matters is how much I can full snatch

>>35117244
in what way does it feel unpleasant?

>>35117282

well I switched from banging the bar to brushing. When I was banging, my snatch would be very inconsistent but my hang snatch was perfect and very strong

now I'm brushing and far more consistent, if mobility feels ok I'll never miss below 90%. But I tried to hang snatch today and couldn't even do 60%. Same with power hang work, very inconsistent. Fine below the knee though and from low blocks.

all of these hangs are above the knee btw

>>35117323
I have trouble with higher hangs and blocks too - yesterday I did 95 for two singles and 90 for 3 doubles off the blocks. My best snatch is 110. The reps I did "right" absolutely flew though, so I think its an issue of just learning my second pull better.

>>35117921

Can't stand the paleo diet trend. Taking a company's money is fine, but spreading misinformation, even passively, is unconscionable.

>>35117921
Seems like Americans spend more time doing media and advertising for things than actual training.

>>35118554

>>35099926

anti gravity boot snatch

>>35117323
if you actually use your legs when doing above the knee hangs it should be close or better than your regular snatches

push your knees out and hips out, you should feel the legs very well then all you need to do is jump while maintaining back angle

do you still feel/hear the contact? by brushing you mean not initiating the movement with the hips right? because you should still hear the loud contact even when you change tech to more legs

>>35118616

EXTEND MORE, EXTEND UP
u remind me of a bigger/stronger me w/ ur form

>>35120255
>bigger/stronger me

lamayo

start taking them stemroid

>>35117802

it's probably for the best to internalize exactly how those ones went. Hopefully that will carryover to a stronger pull

>>35120001

yes I've definitely switched to a more back dominant pull. I still feel the contact, don't hear it because the bars are rogue crossfit bars - i.e. absolute dogshit, barely spin at all, closer to solid lumps than the eleiko bars. I'm working on strengthening lats though which should make a difference, going to try to introduce a bit more pullups/chins

>>35120255
I have a new training method where I don't go full intensity on lighter weight. I just focus on my pattern and my cues im working on and i sit in the hole for a second.... then once I hit 100kg I forget about the cues and let my subconscious take over that department and instead concentrate on power. It's worked pretty welll so far. first training sesh iwth it i went up to 110 with no misses.

>>35120262
he's also a fair bit taller/older

>>35120294
alright, still gota extend the legs full, even if not max power

>>35120169

it's funny that you're basically only extending enough to put the bar overhead every time you increase the weight. Like you cut your pull short every time, hugely so on the 60kg stuff, less on the 70, then less still on the 80. It's like by the time you get to max weight you will have perfect extension based on that trend.

>>35120326
i try to fully extend once i hit 100.

>>35120349

I mean, you snatch more than me so I can't really criticize, but wouldn't it be better to work on full extension at every weight

>>35120365
id find it hard to control into a full snatch if i was putting full power into 60 kg.

>>35120321
whats your height

>>35117970

Paleo is good. This is coming from someone who spends a lot of time reading about nutrition.

It is definitely far better then what the majority of Americans eat.

why do you weigh so little

>>35120476
because reasons.
because im bad at eating properly i guess

>>35120431

I was referring to the bogus claim that the pre-historic human diet was high-protein, high-fat, low-carbohydrate in composition. (Humans from which region? During which seasons? What?) This is claim is not only impossible to verify, it is directly contradicted by the eating behaviors of existing 'hunter-gatherers', whom are our closest analogue to pre-historic humans.
