Oly weightlifting: who wants to race to 220kg total?

[SpugFab]

I'm glad I never actually contributed any lifts at all to this race. Would be pretty embarrassing to see how slowly they'd progressed.

they have progressed?

I have a moustache now, so yes.

[JP]

that puts you ahead in the race.

80kg Snatch

110kg C&J

Oh, nevermind.. Just noticed that the thread is hella old.

Good numbers man.

Most of the "race to" threads are pretty old. You usually have to dig them up from page 5 when you've made progress, then realise you've gained 5kg in 2 years...

I don't think the numbers on the front page of this are up to date, maybe best to stick them on the "Oly Lifting Table" which is also in this section of the forum.

i'll update the numbers, what are the latest?

i'lladd you in too xCx, and spug, lets hear it too mate!

And no pressouts or funny business so my best will be 115 for cj - 117 was done with a pressout.

so my current total is 87.5 + 115 = 202.5 - 17.5kg left.

oh and 220kg will fall by Jan 1st 2009.

i love the optimism which never seems to fade no matter how many times we miss our targets

220 oly total has been my yearly target for several years now

Had to check back on the logs (they are pretty useful, maybe should start one), have done 115 clean and jerk. Couldn't find a max snatch, but was playing about with 70kg on Wednesday so stick that down.

220kg should fall by Jan 1st 2009.

done. At least you can give some updates on this due to the low snatch unlike on other "race to..." threads.

Bronco needs an update too I reckon - his comp PBs are higher than this.

This is true: 90 - 105 are my current PBs. Have been for more than a year actually .

Snatch to 75kg.

Putting some pressure on xCx. I suspect he will break.

[JP]

both of you guys are updated now.

you know, i have a feeling, that one of these years we might actually reach this goal...

perhaps they should be nailed in the same session?

Just because of this, I'm going for a 115kg C&J on friday.

115kg is quite heavy for you.

[bronco]

You forgot to put me up into second place though! This is an urgent matter since I might be overtaken any day by spug and/or xCx !
