What style of training do you do? At the rate we're both going, we're gonna be neck and neck next year at nationals.

Just made a new Snatch PR last night during training -125KG on the second attempt. I then tried 130KG and caught it at the bottom but it was a bit far forward and lost it. Video to come....

@ Kaptan Kayak-My training is a secret :) usually 6 days a week 2-3hrs a day.

Today during squats in training my 90% doubles were feeling a little light so I decided to go for a new Pr. I made 230Kg, an 8kg improvement.

It looked pretty shallow to me, but very heavy lift! Grats

Just had another comp on the 14th of Aug. I was disappointed that I did not lay down the 125 snatch in comp and that I sucked at C&J's but oh well I got Gold even though I was not happy with my technique or strength that day. Could have been the traveling the day of the comp or not enough sleep, whatever the case, no excuses here it is:

It's funny how I clean and jerk as much as you do, but you front squat more than I back squat.

It's funny how I clean and jerk as much as you do, but you front squat more than I back squat.

The guy I train with f squats 185 and c&j's 150 as well. You might have a better technique or carryover in the C&J. I am naturally more of a strength guy then a Technician as well As I can almost power clean as much as I can full clean. The other thing is I can actually power jerk more than I can clean, I have power jerked 160 in training but have never cleaned it.

I also know of 2 guys who used to train in my club that could clean their max front squat. 160 kg's at the time
