It s a pity she didn t teach you a lot more
Wider grip and an inch away from collars your same height as me when standing up straight on snatch bar should be hitting pubic bone that will stop your lockout issue
Half speed pull to knee controlled then pull as fast as you can from knee to public bone
Then shrug and pull yourself under the bar
Good effort from a beginner

Oly lifts were a big part of the WR holder in Matt's first Sport (Triple jump. IIRC Jonathan Edwards snatch was 110kg and clean 150kg whilst weighing c 75kg. Not bad for a skinny triple jumper.
Maybe a target for Matt - Can I oly lift what the WR holder in my first sport could

Great effort matt, I've done snatch and clean and jerk for 3 nearly 4 years and I still find both very hard especially snatch as there's just something very humbling about the movement, there's nowhere to hide with it at all

I defo think you should pursue weightlifting for an 8 week block or something. You had some of the positions down really well for a first go and with your explosive background in athletics you could hit some good numbers soon.

Legitimate question and don't feel like answering if you don't want to but after this video, what is your opinion on male - female trans athletes competing against biological women in physical events like this?

Matt is an athletic dude, seems like he can pick up on new weight lifting techniques pretty easily. Also, anyone else notice he stopped abruptly when he said, That jerk felt.
