Wow Mr Small is right that is a big weight weight loss right there. Have you noticed much drop off in your strength from losing so much weight Dave?

Well hopefully it isn't mate! I'm not too worried about where I'm going to end up, I'm just going to train my bo***cks off and see where it gets me. I've not squatted in a good while whilst sorting my mobility out, so back squatting 200, front squatting 160+ and sorting out my techers are immediate priorities. I'm a PhD student at the moment so I have a fair amount of time to recover etc meaning I can train a whole lot which helps.

I've not been doing the powerlifts during that time so hard to tell on those. I front squatted 150 x 2 right before it started so I guess in a few weeks I'll be able to tell how far off that I am now. I'm doubtless weaker but I'd mainly attribute that to not being able to squat/deadlift during that time rather than the weight loss. I've previously frontied 140 and pulled 230 at 77-78 and not hugely lean so hopefull I wont be totally wank at this weight!

Ah I see. Good luck with the Oly lifting then mate, I'm sure you will be putting up some great numbers soon if you keep plugging away at it.

Cheers mate, I ll do my best. The flexibility is a b**ch for me, need to keep hammering that. How is your training?

I can relate to the flexibility thing for sure, from the little I have messed about doing some olympic lifting I found that very challenging also.

Training is going well, hitting a lot of rep pb's the last wee while so hopefully some nice pb singles ahead.

I found the rep pb's I hit on 531 made for big improvements on my single lift PR's

That snatch looked great, you seem to be nailing the technique down really well!

Congrats on the BW snatch mate, that must be a good milestone to reach.

Are you following any sort of template or are you doing your own programming?
