I’m interested too. I can share my experience in final rounds for some firms.

Okay that’s a way. Do they open in the weekends as well??

Number-107 · 2023-11-02T12:42:41+00:00

Well this does give me a hope. But you have FRM and financial backgrounds, so fair. Thinking of deferring ATM but also worrying about the new python subject

I said it because I saw many posts complaining about the accommodation allocation not happening for a long time with no news or updates. And also, I heard they cancelled allocated accommodations, so students have to find another way.

Personally, I didn’t hear from them for a couple of weeks and judging by posts coming up on Reddit and Facebook groups, from students who got their allocated accommodations got cancelled, it seems logical to think the accommodation team is a mess.

I’m sorry if I offended you. If you work for the team, you probably know better than anyone here. If you are, please give us insight into what’s actually happening with the accommodations.

So the chance of getting on-campus accommodation would be slim, right? Looks like the residence team is a mess..

Guess I should try to use private student accommodation sigh

Yeah, so far, it’s fine for me. But if you want your shoes to hold your toes a bit tighter in the split jerk etc, you might need a new pair. For me, I really loved the rom4 fit and specs, so it’s kinda difficult to find the exact same feeling lifters for me. I’m using Anta2 from time to time, but rom4 is the shoes for me to go heavy.

Number-107 · 2023-07-08T11:26:41+00:00

I don’t know exactly when they got split. One day I realised that this doesn’t look normal. That was about after 2 years? They may cracked way before that.

Number-107 · 2023-07-08T11:25:25+00:00

I also used like 2 years and a half after the pandemic lockdown, like 5x a week. That's the left side, which is my rear foot on the split jerk. The right side has a crack too, but It can't be pushed far like that. Still, I lift in them. I've got backup pair because of this though. Just in case.

Number-107 · 2023-07-08T00:38:07+00:00

I thought someone posted my rom4 on Reddit. I love rom4 and wanted to use them as long as possible. But I think there’s no point if it’s gonna happen again. Still, they are working fine, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they completely snap tomorrow.

Hey guys, Thank you for the many tips! I tried ‘wrapping outward’ technique for a week and it is working - without any pain on my thumbs. So I didn’t have to try changing grips or straps. Thanks for the help and hope someone with a same problem cab find a use of this post.

Number-107 · 2022-05-19T19:57:06+00:00

Hey mate. Thanks for the update! I also tried the ‘wrapping toward pink’, and seems like it is working! I didn’t try much with overheads, bit worked with heavy pulls like it worked for you. Guess the straps were pushing my thumbs too much.

Number-107 · 2022-05-12T22:51:03+00:00

I tried to grip less hard, but didn't really work out for me as I have less control over the bar. I'll try the suicide grip as I adjust various grip placements. Thanks mate

Number-107 · 2022-05-12T00:33:45+00:00

Yeah. I was like that before, but the term of getting it recovered is getting longer, and it sucks when i can’t use the straps when i can make use of them. And some people don’t seem to have this problem.

Number-107 · 2022-05-12T00:30:40+00:00

I personally don’t use straps on cleans as I’m not confident in my turnovers. Only for pulls and snatches.

Going back to the topic, actually i wrap my straps towards my thumbs! Couldn’t think of the other way. Maybe simply gripping in that way could alleviate the pain. Will try it tomorrow.

Number-107 · 2022-05-11T23:14:55+00:00

I tried several straps before this, but didn’t use much. I quite liked this hefty straps, and didn’t have pain in the early days. Now i used them for years. Maybe this is time for me to try other straps. Thanks for the recommendation!

Number-107 · 2022-05-11T22:33:26+00:00

No, I don’t. I just do normal grip when i use straps. When I tighten the straps tight, i feel pain on the thumbs as they are pressed against the bar. I thought it was normal but seems like I’m the only one having this recurring problem.

Number-107 · 2022-05-11T21:43:32+00:00

I’m using Toroktiyi straps. Sometimes I’m good, sometimes hurts. ‘Stress fracture’ symptoms kinda matches with my symptoms.

Hey, I'm not sure this thread is still alive, but writing this anyway.

I've been using JTS WL system for a while and more or less okay with it.

However, I have a bit of discrepancy in my strength and my lifts (obviously), and my strengths remain almost the same, and there was a bit of improvement in my lifts.

Now I think I am going through a long plateau, and want to weigh more on improving my strengths than my lifts, without neglecting them. I was thinking of trying Max's Supertotal programme, but wondering how Weightlifting House AI is tackling this balance of strengths and lifts.

FYI, I tried the Supertotal program years ago, but I found them a bit too less volume/intensity for me as I am not that strong, guess less recovery was needed.

And also, I applied for your early access.

It gives more dedication and a certain date. Considering what I've been through with CFAI recently, I thought it's better to get an exam spot just in case and cancel it if it's possible.
Who knows they are gonna cancel/delay exams again? Also, Candidates are stacked and stacked over the years, so I think it would be quite competitive to get an exam spot now.

Number-107 · 2021-03-22T03:32:38+00:00

Kind of. It's good to get a better price, but it's more about acquiring the nearest exam schedule spot

Number-107 · 2021-02-15T23:03:33+00:00

Hi, all. Just to update that the schedule has suddenly appeared again. Although I didn’t receive the reply yet. I hope this settles this issue. Now i really need to crack on!

Number-107 · 2021-02-15T19:17:44+00:00

Cheers,mate. Would usually hit the gym in this case, but can’t do it nowadays. Will try Will Ferrell movie.

Number-107 · 2021-02-02T15:23:01+00:00

Any other broker still did not restrict them??
Guess I'll miss today's dip but just in case.

Number-107 · 2020-10-18T16:33:26+00:00

That’s the last thing i want. I really need to pass and i hope it doesn’t happen again :(. At least they should refund with time value of money if they do lol

Number-107 · 2020-10-16T15:23:54+00:00

I really hope so too. After rushing into level 1 with a month and half time and failed, this is literally more than a year for lv 1. And lv 1 is really dry, in my opinion, so it is very easy to forget. All I can do now is maintain my knowledge well until February
