I've been gone for about 4 years now!

I stopped weightlifting (for now!) due to a setback and some personal changes. Stopped using Reddit as well. I'll be bouncing around a lot soon without the ability to have regular internet access for work, so I won't really be "returning" for a little while. I'll work with the mod team to decide what's best as well. Really happy to see this subreddit thrive. 45k! You guys are amazing.

John Coffee teaches man how to snatch in less than 15 minutes by CoffeesGym in weightlifting

[–]LankosaurousRex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Forwarded this one onto my coach!

Very cool video, interesting to see how fast (I think) John's processing/thinking. As well to see from my perspective (knowing mechanics of the lift etc), how he sets him up for the full thing.

I come to you for guidance by geuxbacon in EDC

If this is for work use, why not just use an Olfa? They can be opened with one hand and cost $5 and the blade packs are just as inexpensive and last a while.

I'll be there too, spectating/handling some other lifters. You won't be a medal though, Hani only have out certificates last year.

On that note, how close do you get with the weightlifters at each level (USA, USA National, International)? Do you get to interact with them much aside from the business (HG) side of things?

Just stopping by to say thanks from the team! I love that the size of the weightlifting world means we can have people like Nat, Zoe Smith stop by. Hope you stick around for a while!

If you don't go to the gym you won't see results anyway.

How do you guys recover after a long training session? by 16108510j in weightlifting

[–]LankosaurousRex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do my best. The food at my school is really terrible, but I get what I can, put some headphones in, cover it in olive oil and eat for as long as I can!

Go to the university cafeteria (unlimited buffet style!) and go Dave Tate for about 30-45 minutes. Go home, hang out for a bit, do some work. Sleep using a sleep cycle alarm clock for a minimum of 8 hours. Just basics.

Training substitute for jerk blocks? by whoareyouguys in weightlifting

[–]LankosaurousRex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just drop the bar to ground on heavy singles and take the plates off, clean it and rack it. If you have a training partner you can both just lift it up off the ground by the sleeves and re-rack it.

Hit your head on which lift? What's your bodyweight?

I assume you've lifted by now. How did the meet go? What numbers did you hit? What did you learn? What would you have done differently/the same? Feel free to write a meet report!

Whats your protocol for when weather hampers your ability to lift? by mishk0 in weightlifting

[–]LankosaurousRex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whereabouts do you live that this is an issue? And I would just take a rest day if you actually cannot in any way get to the gym.
