Olylifter clip - Marc Huster

[coolcolj]

Doing a double bodweight PowerClean and the Splitjerk! 170kg or 375lbs - too easy for him! He lifts in the 85kg class 187lbs
One of Dimas's main opponents before he retired.
They call him the Kanagaroo, he likes to jump

2 singles of clean and jerks before hand though with 110kg and 130kg

notice he splits wider when he does the deep catch powerclean vs what the stance he uses in the the squat cleans?

That last rep was truly freaky, He didn't even really dip and barely even struggled with the jerk, now that is some explosive power

Those guys are impressive as hell. I'd love to have that kinda of snap. I used to train at a gym with Bryan Jacob.

Awesome stuff, amazing guy

I like the way Huster drives right up into a jerk drive position coming out of his squats. Great athlete and tough competitor.

Did you notice the girl's wrists in the background as she does her clean pulls. See how she turns them in towards her body at the top of her pull. Well schooled

Wow. Thanks for that clip. Now thats speed and power. Wow.

Wow, I want to have that kind of explosiveness and yet still not so bulky, but muscular. Do you think he does bench presses explosively with a pause at the bottom?

 

[coolcolj]

I doubt it, Olylifters rarely bench, some do, but not that frequently. Yet some of them can bench quite a bit, must be the jerks and presses etc they do

A strong shoulder girdle and upper back helps.
Olylifts depends on very strong and explosive legs, back and hips.

They usually bench to balance all the external rotation they do with olys. But not that frequently as benching tightens the shoulders

actually he dipped quite a bit for a powerclean, hamstrings down to parallel, any lower and it's not a powerclean anymore
