Very cool, I always go through an imaginary sequence ( or rather weightless sequence ) before i do anything new.
I just figured out I tend to go loose and loose tension when the 'bell is at the top of the swing/high pull/snatch then try to get it back.
I can't communicate how amazed i am that there are so many subtle permutations to such a simple movement.

A minute to learn a lifetime to master.

Thanks for posting the link Rif. Hey I will be down your way next Wednesday. I will get the vids of Nick to you then. I'll call before then to set up a time and place.

Thanks for the kind words Franz.
