He's saying that if you can't learn to snatch, it might be time to start jerking regularly.

I'll only post something if the teaching format seems to work. At the moment I'm not totally convinced it's really possible to learn from reading something.

I agree although that isn't bad from the point of view that it's explained reasonably well. I do not understand, however, the discrepancies between difference explanations of various positions in oly lifting. It doesn't make sense :/

Does not compute?

Snatch is a word somewhat commonly used to reference a females vagina

I was saying that to master the snatch, is something you surely have the girlfriend for!

That's because you've never done any

Fair enough.

I prefer the term Axe Wound, but that's just me.

Awesome, I'd be interested in your training if you do write about it.

I've been tempted by u90kg strongman, but I think I need to do one thing at a time.

This made me chuckle, although every single point is true !

27. Women can deliver babies easier by having control of the creation of intraabdominal pressure, a strong pelvic floor, and can survive the rigours of delivery with fewer soft tissue injuries by having a strong deadlift prior to third trimester, and those who are very strong prior to conception will likely deliver a baby that slaps the hell out of the doctor and changes their own diapers. That’s science.

Right back session attempt number 2. Yesterday was a flop because my car died.

I think he got the wrong flywheel.

My post must look so random.
