For everyone finding good use to his content whether it's for yourself or your athletes, pay it forward! Don't just scroll down his content and not show some love! His book is awesome and everything else he may have to offer.

Just when I think I know what you’re going to say cause I’ve watched almost all of your videos, listened to the podcast, read your book, and have read lots of your articles… you blow my mind again with many more details and cues-so helpful! Thanks for all you share, Greg!

[@howtosnatch]

Use a BTN push press + push jerk + jerk complex as Greg mentions in Performance Menu. I did 4x3 yesterday and it was killer. Now if I catch myself leaning forward I will repeat the rep. 1,000 good reps or bust, baby!

Thanks for the content Greg. Miss having you guys in Sunnyvale!

There really is a catalyst video for anything. I can pause dip just fine but whenever I try to pause dip into an actual jerk I inadvertantly dip down slightly and then shift forward anyway. Maybe I just need to work on it more frequently

[@howtosnatch]

Incorporate a BTN push press into your training to practice a direct vertical transfer of power to the bar.

What do you think might be the reason for me only dipping forward in the push press but not the jerk?

[@CatalystAthletics]

No idea. Compare videos and see what you're doing differently.

This is a weak area for me - I’m stealing all that!

Hello sir 😄 What should a beginner lifter kee in mind when training? Thank you ☺️

[@CatalystAthletics]

That is literally a book's worth of information... Start reading and watching everything free on www.catalystathletics.com and invest in one of my books if you want more.

Are weak arms (triceps) ever a limiting factor in the jerk?

[@CatalystAthletics]

Doubtful. You're not really pressing the bar up - you're really just needing to hold the weight in a locked position. Do some jerk supports and you'll see you can hold much more than your best jerk overhead if it's locked out.

@@CatalystAthletics ok thank you

10% of your height? For someone who is 5’10”, that would be 7 inches. That seems far too much.

[@CatalystAthletics]

Both Soviet and Chinese researchers/coaches cite the same approximate distance if you trust them more than me. And as said in the video, "Use 10% of your height as a starting point..." More elastic jerkers will tend to have shallower jerks, and more strength-dependent jerkers may dip slightly deeper.

Are these women even natty?? 😂😂👉👈🧐

[@CatalystAthletics]

Why do you ask? Because they lift more than you?

[@GrandpaDon69]

@@CatalystAthletics do i even lift?? 😭

[@hamm0155]

American competitive weightlifters are almost all natty, because the culture is not pro-drug, and the testing in the US is aggressive.

[@Lotus-cu6hp]

Most woman that are decently competitive at WL have the most amazing bodies lol.
