i guess i owe quijjiboo an apology too, LOOKS like u guys are right

I can't speak for quijjiboo, but I don't see any need for apologies. This thread is about learning from each other.

A regimen I prescribe a good bit is a 30 second sprint with a minute rest, and in the coming weeks decrease the amount of rest. This is a good place to start since the workout would be challenging but not totally wipe out the CNS, nor cause you to fall down a flight of steps. Take it easy to start and then step it up as it becomes less difficult, just like you would with any weight program you progress by manipulating different variables (rest period, level of difficulty, and total time).

You can read all you want and listen to people all you want, but until you actually go out there and have first hand experience, you'll never know how it will effect you! The more personal experience you have the more knowledgeable you will become!

9cy,

do you use the SFM from t-nation?

As an aside, I guess you pretty much need a trainer/experienced person watching you to learn the Olympic lifts. I tried the hanging snatch with some light weight and it felt pretty awkward.

LAMBDA, I would strongly recommend learning from an experience olympic lifting coach, but since that's really really rare, you can usually learn them over time and watching video of them being performed. I think Coach John Davies has them on his site, or you could always do a GOOGLE search for them. I learned how to do them from an Oly coach when I first started lifting, and it's the best way to learn but as I said you can usually assimilate it all together from video and instructions with diagrams similar to those found here for Penis Enlargement.

I haven't used that program yet, but I may at some point. Right now I'm using Christian Thibaudeau's Renaissance Body Development.

I've learned the olympic lifts on my own, but I did a lot of reading and video watching on my own first. I'd suggest the book and videotape by Jim ScHydromaxitz from Ironmind if you want to learn. You probably won't have flawless form, but then very few people do, and you could always get it checked by a coach later down the road.

i would suggest power cleans instead of hang cleans, uses more muscles, and can improve ur explosion more. Cleans take alot of technique its bascially a deadlift shurg upright row and squat all in one
