Power jerk is so technical though. I could always bench press more than I could power clean, so I'm sure I could bench WAY more than I could power jerk. But I wasn't unproportional at all and never had strength issues in matches. My back was my strongest muscle, as it should be for wrestling. I think it all just depends on the wrestler.

What are your opinions on deadlift/squat ratios? My physique doesn't allow me to do a completely correct full squat so I was never able to do weighted squats, I have a feeling that I can't build enough leg strength just from deadlift and bodyweight squats. I can't even get low enough for a one-legged squat even tough I've trained my hip flexibility for months.

just wrestle more. i bet b. Saitiev doesn't worry about his lifting porportions in order to wrestle. now if you just want to impress the ladies then, curls are for the girls.

32kgs, that is impressive. i got the 36lb one, 18kg i guess. what is 32kgs like a small person. not bad for a kb snatch.

Original k-bells are made in 3 weights, 16 kg (1 poud in russian), 24kg (1 1/2 poud) and 32 kg (2 poud), my favourite. They're really great for forearms and back muscles, sometimes I do killer sets of k-bell swings and rope climbs. My forearms go numb after 3 sets.

Try doing your k-bell routine for time. I have the kids that I train do swings for an entire college match 7 minutes. You will have to use a lighter k-bell but the burn on our legs and lungs will be extremely beneficial. Also, do your santches for time. Cardio workout is second to none.

Good idea. Something like: 2 minutes 24 kg, 30 sec rest, 2 minutes 20 kg, 30 sec rest, 2 minutes 16 kg, 30 sec rest? I'll try that next week, tough. I got a totally ripped callus from pullups

Iam very weak, what is very weird since Iam mesomorf and I look strong, but Iam not! Iam been training with weights for a year and a half now, my bench press is 80 kg and my power clean about 62.5 kg LOL!

Iam trying to find good program to me and get stronger, a World Championship silver medalist Tuomo Karila gave me a training program which consist of Clean (all the way down), Power Clean and Snatch for day 1, day 2 is Bench Press, Bent-Over Row and Upright Row, the sets are 5x3 increasing the weight so that the last set is the heaviest. Hope I will get stronger soon, or I will be in troubles since Iam in 84 kgs.

Luckily Iam only 17 years old so I have time to get stronger

Koopa, That's not bad for a young man. Body proportions determine how much you lift to a large extent. Guy with short torsos and long arms make good deadlifter, short arms thick chest, good benchers. That looks like a good routine you have there, stick with it! And remember, you're not a bodybuilder, you're a wrestler. You're not a weightlifter, you're a wrestler.
