Last Wednesday’s Olympic Lifting Videos for your own review/analysis.
For a great Olympic Lifting resource, check out the slow motion videos on Benn’s Weightlifting Videos. Notice that the heavier the weight gets, the more important the third pull becomes, i.e. pulling yourself underneath the bar to catch.
Can’t make it down, I’m off home for Christmas.

24kg kettlebell swings

I’m shocked at your apparent endorsement of this blatant sandbagging Colm! What sort of level 2 certified trainer lets people count 60% of their 3RM as a working set?
Will, plz…
What? It’s not a proper crossfit blog if the comments don’t have over-reacting zealotry and character assasination. Someone’s gotta pick up the slack around here…
Ah Will, don’t get me wrong, it’s practically your job to call us to task on these things.
BTW I got a 32kg kettlebell, and have been having much fun with it.
What’s also interesting in those scores is what Deirdre is lifting in comparison to the lads. Bit of an eye-opener, considering she must be giving up 20kg+ compared to some of them.
Wonder where she would stand on ‘Strength Stats’ for the Adult Woman Deadlift? Must be pretty good.
You know Will, I was looking at the scores as I typed them up and noticed the very same thing but couldn’t figure out a way to say it without sounding like a cock. So thanks for being the Dark Knight to my Harvey Dent.
Will’s right y’all – Those 60s and 70s were nothing more than warm up sets.
In defence to the CrossFitters, we started late because the gate was broken, and I kept on getting interrupted during sets I was trying to caoch. Bad group management on my part. Nicole would be so upset.
