Weightlifting is a marathon, not a sprint, but that doesn’t mean you can start running backwards. #weightlifting #bigbendstrong #olystrong #olympicweightlifting

Weightlifting isn't supposed to be easy. It takes time, it has up's and down's, it will make you feel like shit at times, and other times on top of the world. Anyone trying to sell you on this being easy is likely a snake oil salesman. #bigbendstrong #weightlifting #workout

The worst feeling as a weightlifter is hitting an absolutely beautiful lift but not filming it. Then, when you get the camera out to record the next set, you look like a newborn giraffe trying to lift. 😂😂😂
International bench day? Not for weightlifters. Happy international squat day! #onmondayswesquat
OlyBuilding Programming Principles: 1) Organize training split to never have weightlifting compromised by bodybuilding work 2) Exercise selection is key to ensure NO wasted time/volume in the gym 3) Enjoy your training without sacrificing effectiveness
If you have a bad day of training, keep this in mind: Whether you react poorly or positively, the outcome was still the same, a bad day of training. However, one reaction will ruin your day/week, and one will not. Take what you can learn from the day, and discard the rest.
