I have pain in my right shoulder only during the turnover in the snatch. Not overhead or in the jerks. It's like a pinching pain. Also i can't push my hand back when my arm is at a 90 degree angle by my side. I can do this comfortably with my right side. I feel like it's a frozen shoulder issue but i don't know

One of the most useful videos out there, not only pointing out the most serious flaws in the movement, but helping to alleviate them. Great job!

That change plate tree is sexy AF.

From a young age, I was passionate about weightlifting, and many believed I had the potential to become a great champion. However, the war in my city, Mosul, brought immense challenges and disrupted my training, causing me to lose confidence. Now, at 20, I'm ready to return to the sport I love. Although the only weightlifting gym in my city caters to children, I'm determined to train on my own using KZbin for guidance and a nearby gym with the necessary equipment. I’m excited to start this new chapter, rebuild my skills, and work towards my dreams again. Thank you to everyone who has supported me and helped restore my hope.

Please help! Actually when I am doing cleans, my feet opens faster before i can drop under the bar. My 2nd pull is high but I miss the right time. I tried all the drills but it's not really helping me.

Thank you so much!

Amazing video. Thank you

I’m 67. Fit, but never worked with a barbell until fear of muscle loss as I age sent me looking for a personal trainer. Learned to squat, press, and deadlift. Then he showed me to clean….how are you going to get a loaded bar off the floor, he asked. So I learned. Started watching lifting videos and now I’m hooked. Learning snatch drills, working on my hook grip. Coach says I’m strong and mobile and if I want to lift I can. How can I not?

Your content and knowledge is very good

how to slack out the bar?

I started exactly at age 35 three years ago. Competing in my second masters comp next week!

This very helpful and I am trying to correct this mistake , I can deadlift , back & front squat heavy I have lots of strength but when I do snatches and cleans I can’t because I lose the momentum due to early arm bend and I am not doing it intentionally. We don’t do Olympic weightlifting everyday at CrossFit but this one thing I really want to fix because I know I can lift heavy it’s just the technique that I need to practice over and over again and it ain’t so easy . Your information is helpful I will use this practice to try to get better , hopefully 🤞 😊.

My toes lift up just walking. So this isn’t the cause. Some muscle is over worked. I can’t figure out which one.

This channel is extremely underrated

I'm starting over with 5x5 linear progression, but modifying it for weightlifting emphasis. Workout A: High bar backsquat, strict press, clean deadlift. Workout B: Front Squat, Dips or pushups, power clean 5x3

I just bought my lifting shoes couple week ago

Very well said...here I am at 70yrs, An old athlete, a one time weight trainer, bodybuilder, and a life of hard manual work, now interested in competing at Masters level..and the questions you answered were the one in my head..Could I do it, should I do it, all that training in the garage, and the money on gear, and air fares and hotels to go to Masters to do just six lifts..your reply has kept me in it. I know the totals I knew to reach, but can I do it, perhaps...

How do you do when you are flat footed ? The foot arch is geopardizing everything cause it is always crushed in every movement...

This is very good...thanks!

*WEDGE* yourself under thebar

I struggle in general with mobility, so it already feels uncomfortable when getting in the set position. I do quite like the line idea, going to give that a try as i currently have a minor jump forward. I dont trust myself getting under the bar so im lifting the initial shrug to almost shoulder height, when i should already be starting to get under. will use a few of these tips, thanks for the informative video.

nice, thanks

Do you do online coaching with video reviews of lifts?

Very helpful. Thank you

Love it Appreciate timing I ve done it since 1963 when I started Still doning it

As an experienced weightlifter (58 YO) form Italy, regarding point (3) in the video: it isn't common to be "too tight" in the thoracic section of the spine: quite the opposite. See, the model athlete is actually doing *well* , even when she's supposed to be in a _wrong starting position_ . I get it: you want to avoid overarching at the LUMBAR portion (this would mean you're not tight at all in your abdominals) but the vast majority of newbies really cannot be "too tight" up at the scapular level I've always had more success in cueing "think: << whaddeheck do you want from me ?>>" to instill the "big chest at thoracic level" position that's NECESSARY in order to pull efficiently during the second pull. The difficulty most newbies face is maintaining the "whatddeheck.." throughout the first pull, to get into a decent stance at the start of the second pull (right above the knees). I find this automatically corrects the tendency to fall back into the heels (often associated with letting go of the T-spine) too soon. Then (only then) a _bit_ towards the heels isn't bad, it potentiates the second pull, I find. Good video, though ! keep up the good advice ! 🙂

Very Helpful, thank you

It doesn't matter how I feel alone because I don't have a choice

Knew I was jerking wrong

I’ve just started weightlifting, teaching myself. I’m having sore shoulders from the snatch. Is this normal for new lifters or am I likely doing something wrong? Any advice is really appreciated.

Yes. I would love to have a guide that addresses my left shoulder issue and pain.

I am definitely,the worst journal keeper.

Thank you for the excellent explanations!

Love this! More mindset content please!

Very useful tip thank you

Great content!!!

Awesome!!! Thanks for the knowledge and the video!!!

Watched a ton of Videos to learn the difference in positions and movement till i checked yours. Now i got it ! Thanks man !🙏

Thank you so much! I need help. I started coaching at our local CF gym and their style of lifting completely lacks finishing the second pull and they actually train the athletes to stop upward momentum of the bar about mid to upper thigh, pull the hips back (to create space) and smash/bag hips into the bar to “help” it get into the receiving position. They train kids and adults this way. I’ve had to coach seasoned athletes that do this and its been a real challenge to reverse this bad habit. Can you direct me to some video or article content perhaps that may address the"bang/smash” error so that I can share and continue to help the athletes out of this bad habit? Thank you!

good stuff

The pre/post test results after the lat roll are insane! Several inches difference. This really works.

👌🏾👌🏾

Why don’t you guide us through in the video? lol

Doing that exercise barefoot may be good for the nervous system but bad for safety

Thank you!

I feel like the jerk shouldn't count unless you clean it yourself with out the boxes
