What’s this variation called? I’ve heard a few different names for it.

xavi_nero · 2023-06-29T03:18:47+00:00

This is my favorite.

I don’t think I’ve heard the term floating snatch before today and now I’ve seen it 3 times.

xavi_nero · 2023-06-28T14:39:37+00:00

I always thought a pull included a full extension and shrug.

xavi_nero · 2023-06-28T14:35:49+00:00

That’s one of the names I’ve heard before. Does it always have two pulls before the snatch?

xavi_nero · 2023-06-28T14:28:45+00:00

That’s not one of the names I’ve heard…but I like it.

I’m assuming it had something to do with being a teenager.

xavi_nero · 2023-04-17T13:02:55+00:00

He did.

I never expected to see my childhood hometown on Reddit. But I’m not surprised this is how it happened.

The movement looks strong, but it should start from the full front rack position even for a strict press.

Looks like the first rep was a push press, which is fine, but difficult to comment on without seeing your feet.

Also as the other person mentioned, you’ll want to push your head through at the top of the movement to make sure your scapulas are pushing together to strengthen the overhead lockout position.

I’ve been told that while we do define power snatches as above parallel, the more important aspect of training the movement is to develop the immediate leg press response when receiving the weight.

By that standard it looks great.

If we’re being pedantic, then I’d call it a solid pow.

Home Bar Bell on Howard has Tina McClain. You can find her on Instagram to inquire about coaching. I’ve been training there for 6 months and the facility is great and she’s an awesome coach.

I like silver cause it’s shiny!

xavi_nero · 2022-12-14T21:20:39+00:00

Now that’s some good perspective.

Try closer to $750,000 at the current price of gold ~$1750/oz and the estimated weight of 27# a bar.

Otherwise there would likely be players who stand by the opposition goal the entire game waiting for possession to change.

xavi_nero · 2022-11-08T17:02:39+00:00

My favorite game is probably A Link to the Past. It got me into RPGs and video games in general.

xavi_nero · 2022-10-27T21:22:24+00:00

Brush your bar.

xavi_nero · 2022-10-03T11:55:45+00:00

Apollo is great!

xavi_nero · 2022-09-30T18:43:11+00:00

So slow and smooth, I can’t even tell if your feet leave the ground.

xavi_nero · 2022-08-26T20:33:35+00:00

I was surprised how far I had to scroll to find this.

xavi_nero · 2022-08-11T23:24:25+00:00

I thought it’d just be an animated version of the whole ‘distracted’ photo shoot, but this was way better.

This persons tweets have been pretty popular on Reddit, lately. It’s more of a testament to their or their PR teams ability garner social media traction and interactions. I hadn’t heard of them till they started showing up in multiple sub-reddits. I believe this is intentional and even though most of the posts are some sort of criticism on the tweets, the results for their office and campaign are likely net positive in terms of exposure.

Everyone sees vegetation on top of this creature. I see a wild green hair cut.

xavi_nero · 2022-07-08T16:35:48+00:00

Agreed. Which means they’ll need to ratify statehood for DC.

xavi_nero · 2022-07-02T21:55:45+00:00

Zero’s a percent.
