Thanks for that Wigan. I was thinking of the Russian masters routine. Will give it a blast, but i will give your routine a shot first. When you do it, do you do it twice a week or just the once?
I'm 41, soon to be 42. Wish U90kg strongman had been around when i was younger but it wasn't. Also, never had the opportunity to do olympic lifting (outside of doing power cleans with very poor technique on myself), but have always wanted to try it. And now i am in the ideal place to do it. Want to concentrate on the power clean and push press, and power jerk as i feel those have the best carry over, but i still want to learn the full lifts.


Because of my knees I only squat properly once a week, but if your knees are okey dokey I suppose twice a week would be do-able. When the knees were in a happier place i would do my 3,2,1 routine once a week and also fron squat once a week but just up to a reasonable working weight for 3x3..

Good luck with the training mate, you are certainly in the right place to get some coaching on the Olympic lifts, even if wieghtlifting isnt as massive as I like to think in Russia Wink

Aim is to get some reasonable training in without my knees blowing up and to turn up and get a total!! Unhappy

Anything over 100/130 would be acceptable, but the way things have been going not sure even that is on..

Not touched a weight in over a week and not done any proper lifts since mid Nov. Promised to lift at Mr Beck's do a week on Sunday so best do a bit.

Snatch
40 x1,x1,x1,x1
60 x1,x1
70x1
75 x1
80x1
85x1
90x1
90x1
85x1,x1,x1

Snatch Pull
110 x3,x3,x3

Front Squat
60 x5
80 x5
100 x5
120 x5
100 x5

Snatches were surprisingly smooth and pain free which made them pretty enjoyable. Left knee is still less than 100% but improving. Fronties were a little bit more than last week.

It's just a small club friendly at Mark Beck's place, very low key, he has quite a few new lifters that are having a run out, I foolishly said I'd do a bit, and it will be a bit. I'm sure he'd be delighted if you wanted to don your lifting suit and join in!!!

Friendly comp at Mark Beck's Crossfit Manchester. Excellent little set up, hopefully Mark will put a good few more of these on, very enjoyable!!!

My lifting wasnt great, but all things considered as good as i could have expected.

Snatch
1st - 90 nice and easy
2nd - 95 nice and easy
3rd - 100[Fail] flew up, should have been nice and easy but I am a nob

Clean and Jerk
1st - 115 easy peasy
2nd - 120 easy peasy
3rd - 130 [Fail]cleaned ok, went a bit dizzy and missed jerk

Pissed off with myself for throwing the 100 snatch away AGAIN

Pleased with the 130 even though a fail as havent even loaded more than 120 on a clean for a few months.

nice video Jeff!
seemed like you approached the 100 a little differently than the 90, 95?
