I always assume that i never pull the bar high enough, but maybe its just a case of being too slow at getting under it looking at this video, he doesnt pull much above waist height. Dhesi moves as well as any lifter in the country, regardless of age, he is a joy to watch. He's a multiple masters world champion and record holder, one of the very best in the world. To be honest mate, I'm not one for analysing stuff so have never sought out ant slo mo videos etc, sorry.. | ||

a cynical old scrote Member 68, 6955 posts SQ 255, BP 132.5, DL 250637.5 kgs @ 110kgs UnEq | Monday 12 March 2012 Had the bright idea at weekend, to vist the local gym and just do a bit of BB stuff and some light leg extensions to run some blood through the weary and achey knees. Wish I hadnt!! On trying the leg extensions I soon found out the left knee I have been nursing the last few months must be worse than I thought. First set it was apparent that the right leg was doing all the work, so took the pin out of the machine and tried to do them one leg at a time. Right leg all fine and dandy. Left leg couldnt budge the fcuker???? Too extreme effort to get the leg to raise and prompted considerable discomfort!!!! Strange thing is that I have been managing to train ok and thought i was just having to nurse it a bit. Dont really know to what extent the knee has been resulting in lost power, but could go some way to explain the lack of expected progress..  Anyways, British on Sunday, two sessions left. Tonight is a medium ruin through on both lifts.. Snatch Bar x millions (left knee and right wrist are not good) 40 x1,x1,x1,x1 60 x1,x1 70 x1 80 x1 85 x1 90 x1 All ok, but painful.. Clean and Jerk 60 x1+2 60 x1+2 80 x1 100 x1 110 x1 120 x1 All ok, but painful Bench Press for a bit of BB So, all but done for the British. Light one on Wednesday, and then a few body squats each day to try to keep the knees freed off. Then Sunday will see many painkillers consumed along with the regular anti-inflams and see what happens. | ||

No heriocs planned for weekend, would just be nice to get 6 nice lifts and come home with the title. Olly - rest will be how the knee gets sorted no doubt, unless i can scrape a few hundred notes together for some physio.. | ||

Olly - rest will be how the knee gets sorted no doubt, unless i can scrape a few hundred notes together for some physio.. Might seem like an obvious and therefore daft question but have you had a scan on your knee to see what the issue is? If it's just a bit of cartiledge floating around in the joint then you may be as well just getting yourself on an NHS waiting list cos no amount of physio will correct it. Just tell the doc that you've tried resting it for months so that they can't simply prescribe that!  Good luck and give us a little bit of heroics, maybe on lifts 3 and 6!  | ||
