 I was swinging out of control like an ape Member 1559, 4075 posts SQ 180, BP 100, DL 202.5482.5 kgs @ 90kgs UnEq | Im not an expert but it looked alright to me, some big weight too! ive lost a few heavy jerks at lockout for no reason, the bar may have ben slightly out in front of you a little at lock out?? | ||

 vegetarian with a big deadlift - who would have thought... Member 340, 13300 posts SQ 315, BP 190, DL 350855.0 kgs @ 110kgs UnEq | Impressive clean. Is the jerk not a dodgy lift to attempt with an injured achilles? | ||

Thats what i thought. But my arms just won't go back. Shoulders killed after this session, must have really stretched me out. I've torn a pec on gymnstics rings before because of lack of flexibility. | ||

 Member 3241, 2043 posts SQ 1, BP 192, DL 255448.0 kgs @ 136kgs UnEq | Massively strong clean  I'm not an expert by a long shot but it looks like you push the bar away from you overhead slightly instead of getting under it... Either that or I'm talking s**t...  | ||

It's a bone spur, its been injected and scraped around it 3 weeks ago. That gives me about 2 months to train before i hurts too much again. So im hoping to do athletics in May/June. This hurt but no where near as much as when i did the yoke. | ||

Ah, I see, well I hope you get a good run at it before it needs sorting again. | ||

My asshole is not watertight.

HUGE_GUY said: x2 - you can see your drive forward on the jerk. At those sorts of weight there is absolutely no room for it being out of line. Thats what i thought. But my arms just won't go back. Shoulders killed after this session, must have really stretched me out. I've torn a pec on gymnstics rings before because of lack of flexibility. stretch, stretch, stretch! With your athletics background you know the score. The clean was ridiculously easy and the jerk was to arms length. All in all - BEAST! (but I still think Shane will beat you at ESM u80's  j/k ) | ||

Ive been stretching but not much has happened. Once a day, 30 second holds, pain level about 5/10.I recently read you can be very tight if your diet is much more acid than alkaline, and all my food was on the acid side. EDIT - "I AM ..... ducking out of BSM u80kg" Very f**king funny. Change it to something good. | ||

Full mask or nasal and chin strap? Member 3254, 2485 posts | That is an excellent power clean The jerk you just f**ked up, hense the scream before you actually missed the weight It's a lots of weight for a small guy to hold above his head so don't be too critical | ||
