Continuing the string of strong friends coming through to play....



Continuing the string of strong friends coming through to play. Ben Claridad from Midtown Barbell was in lifting with us last week. Here he is pulling an “easy” 143kg/315lbs snatch from a deficit and following it up with some “panda” snatch pulls. In talking to Coach Wu from Singapore, he has no idea where that name came from. Just like when I asked Dmitry Klokov, he’s never heard of Smolov or The Russian Squat program. Fun facts.
