...snap them like twigs. It is just that when you do some heavy lifts you start to feel like you could do just about ANYTHING. And training with a bunch of others you start to feel like you are merging with or tapping into something all powerful. Most wonderful feeling in the world (for me).

Found a couple of Tommy Kono clips on the snatch (mostly) last night. Back to the drawing board (aka broomstick) for me technique-wise. Sigh. Still... I suspected that having shoulders over the bar made the transition to the bar over your knee a bit easier and I didn't realize one was supposed to have lumbar curve at that point. Now I get how people are managing to maintain that hamstring tension that some of them go on about...

Couple weeks to get that then lifts should go up.
