    Very cool video! Glad to see you over here. Thanks to this video, I could find out about the gym Tsurumi. Also, they went to Enoshima, which technically isn't an island. The beach is in the Shonan area and it's far from beautiful. I'm sure Toshiki would admit it. But, it's the most popular beach for Tokyoites. This is off season. A month later, you won't be able to see the sand or the water 20 meters out because of all the people and trash, with Japanese reggae pumping all around. It's a unique experience.

    Ah, thought I recognized the Enoshima bridge the Miura peninsula from beginning. Beautiful island which has seasonal displays at the top garden where the viewing tower is located. Not sure if the video covers it, but gyms in Japan are resistant to customers with tattoos and tend to forbid recording in regular gyms. Outside of Tokyo it'll be much more difficult to find Olympic or powerlifting focused gym with appropriate equipment. They exist though.

    - How was your trip to Japan? The food culture must have been awesome, what did you eat?
    - It was great, I ate burger!
    - So what are you gonna eat now back in US?
    - Probably go for a sushi or ramen.
    Honestly though, I think another culture's burger/fast food special meals tell you a lot about the country's food culture.
    This weightlifting class in Japan feels kinda like you're never too good to expose yourself to different teachers at various levels and different places. You can always learn new things and get new perspectives, seems like in weightlifting every nation has their own focus points in the lift. It's fascinating that Toshiki had the same tip to Eoin in squat, keeping the wide chest. And I can tell why weightlifting educators warn about using straps. Without experience that lost snatch could've done things.
