can only watch the 50k vid but it looked piss easy,long range of motion on that press!Your flexibility must be pretty good the way you drop into that squat clean.

Ha! If you only knew-I am far from being flexible. The weight on these is light, it is just painful getting a barbell overhead (and even more painful lowerinf it afterwards).

I did a couple of videos today. I'll upload them now.

I would love to beat your world record jon, but doing 20 makes e realise what a ridiculous number 53 is! I'm going to nudge the 20 reps up as high as possible before claiming your titleGrin

The clean technique is not too bad until it gets heavy. For example, today I worked up to 82 kilos which I think is a pb. I dropped down into a squat clean no problems until the pb attempt, when i didn't drop at all. It is just a mental thing-I can probably pull 100 kilos high enough to drop under already, but I couldn't bring myself to drop with it.

I'll keep working on it.

PS-I've no idea what I weigh, but it is probably around 100kilosHappy

EDIT: as far as the jerk/press goes, I am truly awful.Embarassed

once you get up to speed with the overhead you'll be whacking out a lot more than 70k you just need to practice your tech( which by the way compared to your clean is s**t Grin )

dumbbell bench 30 for 20 done.



Also realised that I mis-titled my deadlift video as 200 for 20 instead of 100 for 20 (wishful thinking) so I fixed that.

I don't want to write up everything I do, but it was a good session today. The highlight was obviously a big 43 kilos for 8 on the barbell curl, but there were also a couple of good performances on the minor lifts that are squats and deadsHappy
I did 170 for 4 on the deads. Although this is obviously either a good three or a failed five, I can't remember doing this before, so that is god news. A deadlift pb at some point in my future would be nice.

Cheers jon. The gym is a bit small especially for my wingspan. It is actually not wide enough for a barbell, but everything fits in cosily this way round.
I might give the 1 arm bench a go, sounds nice.

30k x20 is good work mate and sounds like a deadlift pb is on the horizon,170x4 gave me 200k get it done
