Stretches

Comments: Trained over at Maurice's home gym today. He's got a couple of Elieko bars and they are sweet to use. Height was a bit of an issue for me so Jerks got cut and I played 'aviod the rafters' when pressing. Then got told off for my form!!

I tried a couple of Snatch Balances for comic effect on my last OHS rep. Quote - "You get the idea. They're rubbish but at least you get the idea." Haha. I was discussing with Franklin last week about looking up/down or whatever while lifting. Today without me mentioning it Maurice told me to try looking about 8 feet in front of me instead of 8 feet straight above me - definitely made my OHS a lot easier. I had a 2" metal bar under my heels for Back Squats after the 2nd set - it put the weight off my back and onto my legs, so much tougher for me. Really need strong legs for Oly Lifting so I've got a lot of them in my future.

Saying that, Maurice is talking about changing things up a littler earlier than he'd planned, it seems I'm grasping the basics quite well. Kinda curious now as to what the next phase will be...the old man is giving nothing away.
