His levers get the bar up. Member 2919, 8635 posts SQ 195, BP 127.5, DL 225547.5 kgs @ 77kgs UnEq | VanillaGorilla said: I feel my snatch is beginning to lag a little in comparison, although hardly surprising considering the remains of my left shoulder, it is nonetheless frustrating. Still, improvements are being made, and when I finally burst through this f**king 100kg barrier I think it'll move on quickly! (Missed it twice off blocks yesterday, both by ther narrowest of margins, I think my 'f**kS SAKE!' is still echoing round the gym ) Yea, Central Open (Steve Cannon organising) Yeah the fact that you can even snatch is good! The 100kg barrier is an absolute bas***d. I don't ever remember it being such an issue on any other lift! My snatch is always lagging behind my C&J but I feel it will soon start catching up. I'll bear that comp in mind as a worst case scenario as I need to post the English total. | ||

I think I'm going to skip 100kg, it ceases to exist, just go straight to 102 I checked with Ed Halstead, and the English is pencilled in for 14/15th Feb (Details to be confirmed online by 1st Dec). The central open on 24th Jan will be the last chance, as forms will need to be in Monday 26th. | ||

I may need to lift as a guest somewhere I skipped it and then came back to destroy after I'd nailed 102 just to let it know who is boss. | ||

So I don't plan on competing until I know I will hit the qualifying totals without any drama. So I intend to keep plodding along getting stronger until that point, then see what comps are around | ||
