At Arnold's, the axle clipped Shaws belt and David Webster said no lift and he had to restart from the floor!

Thanks for the comments guys. The prob with my clean is that i always do double over hand but i thought 180 would be 2 hard to do DO so went for the mixed grip. I might work at the mix grip with lighter weights to help improve it.

Im big right now. 154kg (the biggest I have ever been, 10kg up on last years worlds) Im sure if i improve the clean I have 190kg in me. I did 140kg for 10 after the 180.

In some comps I would have got away with it but as Terry and Ken have said alot of comps don't let you touch the belt. But it was training so i wasnt guna start again from the floor lol.

I dont see pressing as a weakness anymore. Took alot of hard work and time but its improved alot in the last 2 years.

If terry is 100% and I perform to my best Im sure we both have a shot at the podium this year. Just need things to go our way as there as so many good guys these days.

Youve stuck to your word loz !

Dont know if you remember but after the appollons at malta you and terry both said you now what your weakness was and you said your going to batter axel as you were dissapointed with your performance and after watchin z power clean about 11 reps haha

Good effort mate big improvement you should be proud

great lift!

what puzzles me is that the axle is in the hands and not the chest! WTF! 180kg in the hands just like that Grin and then a lot of the leg drive must be lost because of it?

but, in the end, it went up and went up comofortably. Solid work!

Great lift mate.

Clearly pressing isn't a weakness anymore!

How did you go about attacking your pressing as a weakness mate?

Solid press Loz and as you say your not use to using a mix grip for axil cleans. But as you have said practice at lighter weight on the mix grip. Looking forward to seeing what you can do at wsm this year.

Great work Loz!

I reckon you could DOH 180 onto your belt no problem with your grip of iron!

Looking good for worlds this year, no doubt!
