In this episode, I talk about how the split jerk transformed my split jerk for the better. Talking on the obvious tangible improvements, and also the intangibles that I helped develop my split jerk both technically and of course, with more weight on the barbell.

This is a recent episode from 'The Process Podcast' with Ed Haynes, featuring myself. We speak about patience, discovering potential in athletes, athlete identity and process orientation.

In this episode, I talk about why adding 'fun' to a program can be better for performance, than purely programming for performance from a theoretical perspective.

In this episode I talk about the value in staying on course, and the distraction of making constant changes. Whether that be coach, program or something that plays a role in your approach to improving in weightlifting.

In this episode I talk on discipline. Not in the sense of always 'going the extra mile', but the opposite. It isn't always pushing that requires discipline, but also knowing when you should rest when necessary.

In this episode, I talk about the first pull of the snatch and clean. Specifically, the speed in which they are executed. I talk of the challenges when the speed of execution is too great for the athlete's technical capability.

In this episode, I talk on my experience in adopting an 'all or nothing' mindset when it comes to my training in Olympic Weightlifting. With that, I compare it to the reality of the process of goal achievement, and how focusing on doing what is 'good enough' beats such a black and white approach.

In this episode I talk about my experience from progressing beyond the intermediate level in my weightlifting career. I talk about the process of elimination and narrowing my focus to improve on what I prioritised. 

In this episode I talk about my history of tracking my training, nutrition, sleep and other metrics. I talk on why I started, what I have learnt from this practice, and how my approach has changed over the many years. Not to mention, the challenges I have faced along the way.

In this episode, I talk about the importance of sharing your story and journey. It's is very common to let social media and the false ideals that are promoted inhibit you from sharing real life stories, successes, lesson and failures on your journey.

I talk about what I personally find inspiration/motivation in, and how I found it when I started to 'put myself out there' and share my story.
