Shame about the qualifier situation but you are very young have 2-3 more games in you . If you started olympic lifting late, you will peak a lot later in life!

Oh no I am not complaining about my own situation, I probably wouldn't have been good enough, they are just disorganised. If they had told people they had a qualifier at the end of May to hit certain clear numbers, they would have had another 1-3 people on the team. I am baby in the sport, 2 years in a garage is nothing. All things happen for a reason and it was a huge learning experience. No regrets!

Haven't you been doing the oly stuff for about 4 years Smalls? I remember you snatching and that at OSG a few years ago.

It's a great snatch that!

Not really mate, I did them about once, sometimes twice, a week for a few weeks at a time in 2012 because of University and stop/start for exams, early 2012 was when I started getting properly interested in training, I had been following it for a bit before that. In March-April 2012 I had about 2 months of consistent training only for weightlifting but again once a week with Kev and the rest by myself. Then 1st Sept 2012 I had set up my garage gym and got started properly. I think I did my first comp in November 2011 after about 3-4 weeks of doing some lifting (after Olympic Dragons 3), I did 72/83 I think. So "on and off" 2.5 years, properly 2 years. I hate it when people are like "yeah only been lifting 6 months and do xx numbers" ignoring the 10 years they had before in strength sports so I wouldn't make up numbers like that. Even though technically I have added over 100kg to my snatch since starting.

And thanks for the snatch compliment. I like snatch, proper smoke and mirrors lift, no strength involved.

I was kidding mate Grin

Time does fly, that time seems like a thousand years ago but it wasn't all that long ago. I've only been gone for 2 years but it seems like a lifetime ago.

Job interview Monday and Tuesday so fingers crossed with that.

Basically professional strongman. But I can't give any more details, the company doesn't allow me to mention their name.
