Do you guys think you could make a video about muscle snatches, in terms of how to do it properly, progressing it, going heavy, etc? That would be much appreciated.
Want to see you guys do great. Sorry i know i'm not the coach and know nothing about John. Youtube pings Coaches like this all the time i understand that. John has awesome passion and i'd love to see him fulfill his dream. Just them hands, shoulders, and elbows don't look right in that jerk to me haha Best of Luck!
Johns snatch looks great overhead. I know judging a youtube video isn't the best, but it appears if he were to keep his rack similar to Donnys, his overhead support would be much greater from how it looks in the snatch. John looks as if he's about to do a front squat after the clean. His mind is saying "yes" but his body says "no" cuz with his hands so close to the shoulders with high elbows they gotta rotate out when passing the face, instead of already having set and aligned like Donnys rack.
Has john ever tried to Jerk like Donny? That position with the arms looks to me why the bar pushes out in front of you, and why it looks like you have shoulder impingement overhead. Donnys barbell path is pretty straight, he misses behind his head, john misses out front cuz his elbows do a funky rotation when passing the face. i understand some lifters do that, just doesn't look natural for john. John has a a great rack to go ahead and put the elbows down and out with a little wider grip.
donny's cleans are so much better. Faster, stronger and doesn't look like he's gonna faint after standing up with anything over 90% of his PR. good job!
this reminds me of tom hanks in the movie a league of their own, "there's no crying in baseball", only it's Glenn this time with"there's no crying in weightlifting". haha
Jon's push press is a pretty low % of his jerk compared to Shankle and Spence. Strong stuff though, I liked the braveheart soundtrack during Spence's lifts.
