Work it without the drop then (and work ankle flexibility).

power cleans without a drop? blasphemy. the whole point of the power clean is to drop under the bar! (i'm not talking about a squat clean. i can do those by riding the barbell down. but i can't do a short drop like the one that's actually needed without widening my stance (at least with the amount of weight i'm able to lift) or i'd fall backwards, and my knees don't track forwards enough to recenter my weight beneath my feet)



cheers for that last one! the others i had already. i also use this one for reference: ‪Power Clean‬‏ - YouTube
watch the position of her knees on the landing. mine generally barely make it fast my toes unless i have around 30 kilograms over my shoulders to counter-weight me.



i'll wear rubber duckie gloves!

Fun thing about being an ectomorph...while it takes you an aeon to gain weight, you don't have to put on fat along with it.

Yes, I'm finally gaining muscle AND definition. Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
 
Just finished my lifting session (yeah, I was posting on here inbetween deadlifts and powercleans, lol XD).

I felt really weak earlier, but I thought I should lift anyway since my strength is such an asset at judo and I don't want to start losing it. I figured 'Ok, I can feel comfortable now, or I can destroy a 15kg heavier guy in groundwork later'. Did them anyway and I feel pretty good now. Will power ftw, haha. Or recklessness, I'm not sure...

i suspect my traps might be starting to grow... gonna see about adding an exercise or two to my workouts, see if i can capitalize on it.
 
2 cases of kroningburg, 1 case if guiness, a 12 year Scottish malt, 200 quid, a great group of friends, a fat lip and one very unwise attacker later and steves birthday weekend is over!


I'm amazed I'm still alive and deffinitally suffering for my sins today, I acctually have DOMS in my abbs from laughing last night.

I think Newcastle is ready for me to go teetotal again!
