Well, you see the difference between you and I is that I have humility and don't mind recognizing when someone (potentially) may have more knowledge than me, or that they may have a different perspective. Please don't be so arrogant to think that you were the only person I posed the question to. I took your lack of answer to mean you probably didn't have an answer. Shall we continue?

Anyone who knows me outside of this board and even in pm's knows I'm the complete opposite of how I am on these boards. This is the world of getbig.

Great lift but no doubt that was his limit.

you seem a little resentful of FRONING, falcon? we should explore what about froning is arousing feelings of insecurity/inadequacy in Jermohit Falcom

Have someone who KNOWS how to do it explain it it you. It's a very hard and technical lift and you might get hurt.

Yeah, well the guy above specializes in the snatch and c/j. Frowning does those lifts to better himself for crossfit comps.

In reality it's a pretty simple and natural movement.

If it comes simple to you I applaud you. That snap and drop can drive you bat shit crazy. After so many years of "control the weight" fucks with your head.

That Pyrros Dimas video is one of my favorites. Shit never ceases to amaze.

jon cole · « **Reply #73 on:** February 25, 2013, 01:59:49 AM »

the "300 lbs" seems suspect to me.
few guy at my gym can snatch 225, it's already a big deal.

Jadeveon Clowney · « **Reply #74 on:** February 25, 2013, 02:01:37 AM »

those weights are heliumized so it's a lighter 300 lbs than normal - still 300 lbs but heliumized.
