How to perform olympic lifts Videos

+jude saiz im joking

Just stop

No. Then reverse grip overhead jerk it.

are you joking

+ALun Ko Lu Xiaojun, Kendrick Farris, hell Dimas is beastly as fugggg.

+Vladimir Andjelic Dmitriy is Freak of nature. Bad ass dude.

+Efi Eli Jesus dude there are colloquial irregularities in language all of the fucking time. Let it go. Maybe he was using design as a euphemism.

+Efi Eli You know what he means by "designed"...It doesn't have to imply Theistic creationism. It can imply the evolutionary design too, such as how Dawkins and other atheists (including myself) use the word.

Except for the fact that evolution is a form of selection by design, as in to say the "design" that is most fit for the environment will be selected for if all the relevant conditions are met. In that sense, your body has certain capabilities that are either exclusive to it or are simply what it excels at by design. Elliot is making a point for the fact that the human body is capable of lifting heavy shit off the floor and pressing it overhead using mainly the "man muscles" and proper technique, as opposed to bodybuilders that lack the functionality that is generally associated to their body's design.

+Efi Eli We are not necessarily designed to be accountants, kings, or porn stars. What's your point?

+enrique2395 Except for those who can't communicate without curses.

stfu!

Start powerlifting and eating more.

yeah and its usually the time people might turn to drugs.

lol

+stu nelson No we won't. As long as they dont spam me with videos. I dont feel the need to punish a free(at least for me) subscription

I know, I actually unsubscribed a while ago. but I have a feeling that this channel will be great again

+Flyers1298 2900 calories seems abit high for a cut at your weight and bf%. I don't know how fast your metabolism is so i can't be certain. You should go for a 20 to 25% deficit from your maintenance, this is still a safe range. If you want to eat more then you just have to workout longer/ do more cardio to get the deficit you need.

Great video, and nice and straightforward. Too much detail and my lift starts breaking down into a series of sections, with predictably dire results. I love the snatch, although mine is truly still a bit of a power snatch. Would love to be nailing it like Holly shows here. Will get there in time! Thanks again.

Thanks for the respose. :) Glad you like it. There is a lot to think about with the snatch but sometimes you can OVER think it! Think about what you are going to do in between sets as you are resting but when you grab the bar just do it! :)

just wondering do you have to catch it in a squated down posisiton or is that just to help get it cuz if its lite i dont squat down just stay standing up with my legs bent a little

@CrossFitConnect I've been looking for an OLY gym nearby, unfortunately that's a few hours away so i probably won't go there ;) THanks and keep lifting though!

@Fittnesz The title should be written down in the description of the video above. Look at the bottom

Awesome video! We're doing snatches at my box tonight and this was super helpful!

Excellent breakdown! Love the format, video and stills. Really helped! Thanks!

Videos like this that make me love CF even more. ^_^ Thanks for posting!!

thx for the great video! anyway what is this beautiful music?:)

One of the best snatch tutorials on the net. Subscribed!

great I want to show this to the girls on my team

im afraid to pop my shoulder out with this :(

@bustagh0st At CrossFit Connect in Hove, UK :)

Many thanks. Glad you find it useful. :)

Great over view of the snatch. Thankyou!

Nice little video there.

where do you lift?

excellent video

+sammy1995 Dat ass though, hnnnnng... I did bodybuilding for 2.5 years, and when I squatted, I did ATG Squats(ass to the grass) and enjoyed doing the lifts in this video. You can see my competition videos on this youtube account. Now I don't compete and it's been years since I last lifted. I doubt my hips and knees will wear out within the next 10, 20 and 30 years!!! I don't look as good as I used to when I competed, and I have yet to meet someone that actually had muscle or bone deterioration caused by working out a certain way. On the other hand, they are built to last if they never stop!!!One of my videos posing.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7IaFjsv4ZxA

+stoner4010 It was born long ago :)

hey, just wondering what your thoughts are for people who have normal barbells, but not bumper plates or an olympic lifting platform ? Is it safe to just lower down the bar without dropping it ? Obviously not with a big load.

As a longtime weightlifter it is so cool to see all the fitness guys beginning to show interest in the olympic lifts, imo free weight training can give you so much more than any machine could. :-)

Great video Chris, Claire, Eric and Matt. CrossFit has changed my life and having a coach like Matt has made it even better.

Great clean and split jerk Chris!!!

THanks!! :)

+Collin Quarles As I mentioned Chris is an elite jumper and propably a very good sprinter too, I learned alot from him. And Elliot is truely strong or was, it also depend who you compare him to, compare him to the average youtube fitness guru, he rank high up there.But I agree with you about the rest of his crew, it all seem very random. I geuss Elliot is trying to make something like Barts Barbell Brigade crew. But Barts success lies in that he has a girlfriend and friends like Lu with characters that really stands out. And he constantly surrounds himself with other youtube celebrities like Omar Issuf and others.For me Strength Camp is still Elliot and Chris, his other crew member need to step their game up lol. But I guarantee you if Elliot had someone like Brandon Carter and Frank Yang join his crew, Strength Camp will be more popular than all the other fitness channels.

Elliot's training advice is sub-par on it's best day, that's why no-one at his gym has ever done anything anywhere close to elite level. He's a good coach if you want to be average at just about everything. His life advice isn't terrible, but it isn't the best.

+Collin Quarles Chris is damn good at jumping. And Elliot is very good at 1 singular thing, and that is to give advice for training and life in general.

The best "Workout" will be getting in the ring with someone and work on sparring, that will get you better at fighting

My Cousin is in the Ufc hes always doing crossfit

+Tank Wrold I personally would recommend some strongman style work, as it has you lifting a lot of awkward odd-objects which will make you strength more versatile and better suited for lifting everyday things. As far as martial arts, I would highly recommend Capoeira. It teaches you whole-body movements, will improve your balance by teaching you how to strike and attack from awkward positions, greatly improve flexibility, will make your general body-weight movement and agility much better and more efficient, and it is a martial art disguised as a dance, so you can seriously throw someone off guard with it if you ever needed to defend yourself.

+Tank Wrold Lifting heavy does not mean you can fight. It helps but if you don't train striking or grappling then... well... you can't strike or grapple.

Krav Maga

i actually already have 

+JJTOP SMILE Unsub then. It's strengthcamp channel not the elliott hulse channel.
