    Really nice lifting. I'm a 74 year old powerlifter who's been fortunate enough to have coached the US world masters team 14 times and won 7 masters world championships.
    I also have many good friends who compete for Great Britain.
    I've been following you and Jaz for years and I'm thrilled youre going to compete. I always thought you had great potential (i did weightlifting before powerlifting), and look forward to seeing you on the national platform. Maybe we can get together the next time I visit my cousins in Milton Keynes. Good luck, stay healthy.

    Also, Chris is a top guy. Met him at the Arnold’s last month at the Nocco stand. He kindly let my 10 year old daughter do some lifting on their platform. Same great community as CF.

    Craig for that last c&j you may get 1 light out of 3 , the arm bend is suspect but good going

    • @TeamRICHEY
      @TeamRICHEY  3 роки тому +1

      Watch it in slow motion my arm stays locked by the look of it and it’s my shoulder that drops 😅 some stabilisation work to be done 🤩😅

    • @paddygilmore711
      @paddygilmore711 3 роки тому +1

      Slight press out on all the jerks and that snatch is suspect aswell. Just got to be careful because the judges will be strict with that, a lot of strong cross fitters come unstuck on wl comps because their community builds them up and wl judges will tear them down. Great work and very strong, just abit of polishing up 👍🏼

  • @emzzan88
    @emzzan88 3 роки тому +15

    My only thought: why didnt he go heavier, it looked too easy.

    • @daniellambert1342
      @daniellambert1342 3 роки тому +2

      Probably because he just needed to qualify and he also mentioned he was in the middle of a training block which would suggest performing a 1RM wasn't the most sensible idea... he'll probably lift heavier in comp

  • @DWHGWIHW
    @DWHGWIHW 3 роки тому +1
