Cheers man, some of the vids on that channel are epic. Hysyen (sp) is so goddamn quick. Hope he does well at the euro's!
He is. Ive been working with Abadjiev and talking to Hysen on increasing my speed. I made a really good snatch that Uncle approved of and I asked if it was as fast as Hysen. He said 'yes, when Hysen was 9 years old.' :-/ Then I got a serious answer that I was about 70% of his speed. Goal is 90% :)
That's still 69% quicker than most. You're in a heavier weight category though right. I'd love his speed, what sort of stuff have they had you doing? What weight was the really good snatch?
Im 85kg and he lifts more than me so the extra weight isnt helping :P The weight was 120kg but he went on to do 150 that day. Im working on using my lats better and constantly pull through the entire lift, especially after hitting the bar. Its not 'new' to me in that I know I should do it, but it feels new due to the amount they have me doing it. Ive been ripping the bar in through the bar and not stopping after extension (as I watch Hysen do it). Also working on using my legs better to get the bar higher. Again, I know this, but the degree to what he wants me to do it is much more than Ive done in the past.
