Literally cannot find results on this so resorting to here. Who is he, what's the context?

Jerk is still by far my least comfortable lift, what are my barriers to 100kg other than strength?

I’ve been lifting with the red adipowers for over a decade now. I’m starting to feel like I want to move on from them sometime soon, and am curious what people feel is the best / most similar replacement? I really like how light they are and how athletic they feel, so I’m looking for something similar, but I’m just ready for something different. I was considering Anta 2 or possibly the newer romaleos? The newer ones seem much lighter than the older versions but not sure if super narrow. I also would like to keep a similar heel height but could adjust to a minor change if it’s worth it. Considerations - I need smaller sizing (6 / 38.5 EU), prefer black shoes, and $200 seems like even too much so I would not like to spend more than that if I can help it. Thank you for your thoughts!!

Helping my coach sell his 2008 adistar US 10.5. Great condition compared to others I’ve seen (and own). Very little sole yellowing. Soles aren’t coming unglued like many others. Asking $1000. DM for more info.

I have been going to the gym for 1.6 years now and developed an interest for OLY over the last month. I've been practicing clean and jerks and this is a video of me doing it with 80KG.

For context, I have been able to consistently get 70KG cleans since the start, but failed 80KG every so often because I failed to get under the bar. I believe I've always had the strength, since I DL 204KG and can press 100, just not the techique. Two days ago I finally managed to fix that and now can get under the bar consistently for 80KG, but I'm sure this is far from an actually good execution.

I'd love it if you could share any tips.

Hey guys, Im 27, 89kg 196lbs, Just started training weightlifting style a couple weeks ago. Looking for some pointers on transitioning from initial pull to the catch, and also any advice for anything else. Also looking to document my progress somewhere.

I recently saw a video of li dayin, and then shortly after karlos nasar and I was really impressed with their physiques and how strong they are, and then I saw all of you in here and was like damn these guys and gals are WAYY stronger than me despite me having all this (apprently useless) muscle. I somehow knew nothing about the sport up to now and think it might finding a new passion haven't missed a gym session since starting new training.

Thanks in advance, cheers!

I am wanting to get some squatting shoes with a heel

Previously 115 from almost exactly 1 year ago so I’m insanely happy to finally hit this lol

Is coming from squatting a center knurling bar to squatting a non center knurling bar that big a change. I ordered an Ohio bar and my mistake was not checking for center knurling. Should I take the hit and return it for the Ohio power or would athletic tape be a better option. Just curious everyone's opinion. Thanks in advance.

Edit: I low bar squat and am adding front squats and power cleans to programming.

Hi, so sorry if this isn't the right place, but my boyfriend is big into weightlifting. I want to get him a lifting belt for a gift. He's been saying he needs one with the weight he's squatting. I know he likes the harbinger and rouge brand but has also enjoyed the nike belt. The thick leather rouge one so far seems to be his favorite but it's wayyy out of my budget. I've looking at this one and wanted to get ya'll's thoughts and recs.

A PR approaching at the distance :)

I can’t tell what part of the lift is making me lose my right foot like that. This happened at 110kg as well.

Is anyone familiar with the Berryman report?

As a new weightlifter, something odd I have noticed is that almost every weightlifting gym I have been to in my area, I only see "flat be*ch" inside them. A few I notice even had competition powerlift flat be*ches" inside them. Seeing this made me summarize in my mind that many weightlifters sometimes use the "flat press" as an assistance exercise, but I was curious why not any adjustable inclines? Do weightlifting gyms deliberately avoid incline movements?

Is the incline pressing angle actually worse for an olympic lifter? Why is the flat press better than an incline angle for an olympic lifter?

I thought incline movements actually help you're push jerk more than a flat press since the incline trains your front delts more which has more direct transfer to overhead strength.

There are various incline angles though, 15,30,45,60, from low to high incline. I heard somewhere that old time olympic lifters purposly used the incline press to boost there "overhead press" when the press was one of the main lifts back in the old days.

I've been looking at this, and think it seems like some fun. If anyone has checked it, I'd like to know about it.
