Fast runs with 380 then work on speed if your confident with the weight.

so say i can do 450 for 15m wat wuld b ur next goal 460 for 15 or 450 for 20?


Once again yoke is a speed event. Do not think in terms of metres or kilos. Get a stop watch and work on speed. Pick a time and work towards that. Once you achieve that time add a small amount of weight and aim to make the same time.

I do heavy pickups when say training for wsm with 455 then the runs I never use more than 380 but usually 320-350. As I said on Facebook if you're gonna do heavy pickups make sure you have the same height setup and foot stance as you would if you're gonna run with it.

I do 2 runs generally yes. 20-25 each way.

There might well be but over any reasonable distance (25m) I don't think it'll be soon. When they did it at the Arnold's to was about 8m
