Going Bulgarian for Collegiates!

[Dave 321]

Gotta learn to get the knees out of the way when you snatch.

It was about 4-5 months before I stopped having to tape up my shins and it was fucking annoying.

Also, what's up with all the posterior delt problems?

i'm assuming you are relatively new to weightlifting... have you given any thought to maybe spending more time working on your technique by using lower weights and completing the majority of your attempts?

i'm only asking because it looks like you have a lot of misses at what should be light weights

Yes. Stay tuned.

Your coach is going to agree with stonerider here. After she finishes going through your log. Because you wish to do this Bulgarian thing, you shall be forced to do it correctly...

Please elaborate.

Move your knees back at the beginning so you don't scrape the bar up your shins.
