@dimefractal I hope you are right, I have young kids so I’m about a decade away from getting more than 6 a night.

@backes007 It’s just technique. It just has to click one day and then you are good go

@oddrob Yes, you are right, that's exactly it. I can't put my finger on it, but it really does also have to do with it looking kind of "ugly". A push jerk is a 'cheater' version of an overhead press, but I find it beautiful to witness which I can't say for the butterfly, and I don't really...

@duskborn What did you do this week, I can tell you if it’s CAP
