Last night I dreamt I power snatched 315lbs.
In some realistic if alternate universe setting, Eddie Hall lived just a mile or two from me (totally walking distance).
Somehow I ended up training in his front yard.
A miscommunication with someone there, this having turned into some type of informal strength exhibition which saw no participation from Eddie Hall himself, just a handful of normal guys participating, saw the bar loaded downright weird – a bunch of small plates, 25s, 10s, 5s…
I’d asked for two plates, 225lbs, someone loaded it to the equivalent of three…
…I snatched it incredibly easily, loaded this way essentially from a deficit, THEN did the math!
Counting all the “change” I realized it was set to 315lbs, then ended up doing a second single a moment later.
This time around Eddie himself filmed the rep for me (to post obviously – at this point we have to film “every” lift).
It was cool that he did that. I left with video proof, imagination though it may have been.
Reality being I’ve never done a 225lb/100kg power snatch, but likely am good for it now via a couple years of kettlebell “wth effect”.
