The Olympic Lifting Table 2011

[baldy]

You have to start somewhere:

BW: 82kg
Snatch: 40 kg (I'm learning -> technique!)
C+J: 81kg

Really strong jerk, 1kg off bodyweight overhead. Did you have a go at 82kg?

Thanks! I didn't have a go at 82. Trying the 81 I already felt I was pushing my luck, but it worked out.
The risk of dropping the barbell is holding me back. I train at home (no gyms here) and I don't own Olympic plates yet. Crashing steel plates down onto the floor (even with some wall insulation I use as a platform for the plates) is not recommended.
Some day I'll get an oly bar + plates, but I have enough to learn (esp. regarding the snatch) before I make that investment.
I like to think having steel plates only makes me somewhat more responsible about the weights I attempt

Dunno, I would say its probably impossible to learn to snatch well without access to bumpers and being able to dump the bar. Have to work with what you got though
Clean and Jerk bodyweight is strong though, lets see it!

Aha, visual evidence is required! I'll film it next time I attempt it (although it might look ugly...).

A video would be cool, but evidence is not required
"Lets see it!" is a phrase of encouragement often used in my gym. As in we have talked about you lifting 82k, now lets see it!

[Orkje]

Understood. I might start filming anyway, though, so I (and, more importantly, others) can check my form.

I´d like to be in the table, but my results are from this year. Hope that´s ok.

Female, 65 kg
Snatch: 35 kg
C&J: 50 kg

It's getting interesting in the top places!

[hoffmeister]

80 C&J press out, but it still counts...

[Orkje]

85 C&J at 88kg BW. Almost lost the weight forward during the squat phase (heels!) and it's something of a press out, I guess, but it's up Still no oly plates. Cost is holding me back, but it's getting dangerous with the all steel plates.

[Orkje]

55 Snatch and 87 C&J at 88 BW.

[Orkje]

Snatch to 60. C&J still at 87. Won't go any higher without oly plates.
