During max effort lifts a lot will go through your head: "Stay tight, light weight, easy lift". It is very important to remember cues that will help you accomplish a lift whether you actually make the lift or not. Part of lifting heavy weight, properly, is to know how to move through a range of motion effectively. If you do not remember the small stuff ie. drive through your heels, open knees, then the potential of failed lifts go up!
Today I attempted to lift a PR snatch- 100kilos. The first lift I did not remember to turn my arms over aggressively. The second lift I launched the bar behind me 5 feet. I then went up 1kilo but was not mentally focused, only thinking of that extra 1 kilo so, I failed! The next time you lift heavy weight think whether the lift was sound and, whether you remember the cues to help you get there...
Take control of the Fu#King bar and Stay Tight!
