Both Lifts- Tighter off the floor, more finish in the pull

Snatch-specifically more finish this is very evident because you are bending your arms early and the bar is out front a good amount.

Clean and Jerk- clean looks descent ( a little bit more finish).

the Jerk- drive off the heels (thats why the bar is going out front), more explosion in the drive, watch some of the drive of the top lifters they use for short extremely fast dip and drives. Think fast feet on the jerk.


But overall nice lifts for HS age 62 or 69.
To improve things you just need to keep at it. Sn Pulls and Cl Pulls from all positions will help you pulling technique. Jerk is really a tecnique excercise really focus on driving off your heels in practice. By watching you it seems your limiting factor when technique improves will be leg and overall strength, so heavy consistent squats and RDLS.

Ryan,
 thanks for the advice, as for my categoryi was trying to go for the 69 but missed it by .7 of a kg(after trying to weigh less) so I lifted in the 77kg.
Again thanks for the advice, Aaron
