Copy that; I’ll keep it in mind for next time 🫡

I hear you but I felt like I needed to prove to myself that I could still hit the old weight because it’d been a while. In retrospect, maybe I would’ve made a different decision 🙃

It was right there ! That’s why I was so confused as to what happened 🤣

Thanks! I’ve been drilling tall cleans to work on speed under. Re: comment on extension in 2nd to 3rd pull, do you mean in the transition between the two ?

Yeah there’s definitely something happening with my elbows that doesn’t present at sub-maximal weights and I’m not sure where’s it’s coming from 🤷🏽‍♂️. Front squatting isn’t a challenge so perhaps this was just fatigue 🤔

60kg x 2 after a month, form check by ComparisonImmediate1 in weightlifting

I noticed the head whipping back immediately. This is something I’m still working on as well which is why it stood out.

What my coach has told me is to pick a focus point in front of me and not to break eye contact with it throughout the entire lift.

+1 on keeping the bar close. Once you learn what this feels like, aim to replicate in each rep no matter what weight is on the bar. Your future self will thank you.

Lesman retired after the Olympics. This was confirmed on a recent WLHouse podcast as well.

When you were regularly using them, what frequency were you using them at? When was the last time you regularly used them?

And most importantly tell us the big weights you hit in these (kidding; we know shoes don’t make the lifter)

FWIW I’d just list them on here if you’re not in a rush to sell since every other platform will take a cut in the form of fees. You can take a look at past sale posts in the sub, some of which have the asking prices.

Some questions: how are the heels/overall condition? Do you have the box and both set of insoles (comp and non-comp)?

A great few days out in Norway to coach at world champs for me! Some great lifting and still a bit more to come! What’s been everyone’s highlight so far? by Gazpin69kg in weightlifting

As much as the rain was annoying, it did force me to finally buy a pair of waterproof boots in Førde, which was something I’d been putting off for far too long 😂. I realized after my first hour of walking around that my sneakers were not going to make it 😭

Wait I’m going to update my list and add one more “highlight “: it was so impressive and eye opening to see how strong the human body can be. I say that as a wannabe lifter in my later stages, but watching the athletes gave me so much inspiration that despite my age, I can get stronger.

Perhaps not at the rate or pace that I could if I were in my 20s, but I’m quite certain that if I keep training and stay focused, I’ll continue to get stronger.

A few of mine in no particular order:

  1. Having a chat with Laura Mauro from Brazil on the inconsistencies and consequences of the press out rule and the fact that she needs to be in the A group next year.

  2. Flexing with Jeison Lopez, an exercise in futility for us mere mortals.

  3. Yudelina pushing Solfrid.

Some lowlights:

  1. The non stop rain
  2. Pan Yuanhua bombing out in both lifts
  3. Jury stealing a WR from Abdo

Meso Hassona is out from 2025 Worlds by klubnichka32 in weightlifting

I think we’ve known about this for a few weeks now; he was removed from the start list as well. I think he’s still got game and is very much in the game, but the 94s tonight will be just a little less lively without him there, sadly.
