  3. rob -
    strength & power collide with 'barbell gymnastics' i.e. the olympic lifts.

    you have above average/advanced strength with the slow lifts (squats, deadlifts, presses) but i notice that your strength is lacking in the explosive movements and translating your strength into power.

    start with 50-75% of your 1RM on the explosive lifts and/or the movements that generate hip speed (clean, snatch, push press/jerk, thruster, sdlhp etc) and move the load with intensity while keeping proper form & technique (IMPORTANT!!!). perform them with short bouts and an adequate amount of rest in between.

    aside from that, train your mind to get over mental blocks and 'mindfucks' to overcome fear, hesitation and doubt in getting yourself under the bar fast.

    as coach burgener puts it "you gotta have that junkyard dog mentality" and be extremely violent and aggresive on the bar.
