Felt pretty good today. Unfortunately some wanker came in 3/4 the way through and started doing Cleans and dropping the weight from shoulder height. After 3 sets, I went over and asked if I could work in. I did his weight and his number of reps and never made a "clank" -- in all honesty I think he was too stupid to get the point but I think everybody else in the gym got it.

Benefits of Olympic Weightlifting, Never too late to begin, Not just for boys
There are 2 Olympic lifts the Snatch and the Clean and Jerk, both are compound movements and that means they can be broken down into pieces. The pieces can be learned and then added back together to complete the compound movement.
Some coaches argue that the Snatch should be learned first, because, it requires more explosiveness and better technique. Basically, the Snatch consists of 3 parts.
Dead lift
Hang pull
Over head squat, notice the width of the grip.
When added together they look like this: Snatch 1, Snatch 2

The Clean and Jerk consists of 4 parts – 2 we have already seen. But, I will link to different videos for different perspectives on those elements.

Hang pull
For detail we will break out the Clean Catch, notice the elbows, high and forward, and the width of the grip.
Front Squat
Split Jerk
When added together they look like this: Clean and Jerk 1, Clean and Jerk 2
From what I’ve seen during workouts we need to first work on proper technique: Squat

Warm-up -- Treadmill intervals, 7mph work, 3mph rest, 80 second cycles -- getting boring.
Work
Deadlift 225# 21, 14, 7
Kipping Pullups, 7, 7,7
Core 3/20
4 way neck machine, 120#
Cable Crunches, 150#
Cable Push Pull, 60#
"W" was doing the "Bars of Death" spent some time coaching on the Cleans. His timing is off. So that he is jumping and shrugging with his feet off the ground, tried to get him to work on just the high pull -- but obviously "Bars of Death" is a bad time for coaching. I like to think about the Clean and Jerk as 4 pieces that you put back together into one thing. Deadlift, high pull, front squat, and split jerk, break it down and then build it back.

Felt good today. Bench press was weaker than I'm happy with, but time will fix that. I allowed myself more rest between sets. Split Jerk was more than I hoped for.
