One more for the night. Been talking shop with the Russians all night. Here’s a “secret” flu Remedy from Polovnikov that involves one part honey, 4 shakes of red pepper, vodka and wrapping yourself in a blanket all night.

Had a good time collaborating with the boys down at PushPress this past weekend. If you enjoyed the poster, here’s a sneak peak at our next project.

@oliftmagazine is hitting the stands debuting it’s pilot issue in December at The American Open in Dallas, TX.

OLift Magazine is aimed at providing the community with information on American Weightlifting bringing together the experience and philosophies of coaches around the US.

Be sure to check out the interview with my weightlifting heroine @caraheads in this very first issue!

In your mind, where do you rack a power clean/snatch versus a (squat) clean/snatch?

If you’re new to this game, you were probably told that the power variation was racked tall or above parallel of the thighs, and the squat variation was caught in the hole. This is an accurate description but can lead to some confusion as to how the movement is actually executed.

Saturday FuBarbell club. Love these guys ❤️

Kristin Newman post shoulder surgery PR at 178lbs/81kg snatch and 228lbs/114kg clean&jerk.

A noteworthy mention is that we changed Kristin’s technique on her snatch 7 weeks ago and have since put 26lbs/12kg on the bar. She was stuck at 152lbs/69kg for a while because the way she was pulling caused her shoulders pain every 1 out of 5 lifts. We made this change to give her more confidence in pulling under to her receiving position which now she lifts pain free in all her snatches.

When strong friends come to play. Mark Bell from SuperTraining.TV on the ~5” deficit with 475lbs. Then, me setting up and not budging the weight so I go back to my snatches.
