   4 x 500m 2 min rest in between (49,52,50 (i think), 48)

those times are not possible for 500m. they would be near-elite for 400m.

especially when he ran 14.41 the other day

what did you read?

Talk about not accurate. Did the Weight scale test today.

The upper Grip test show 13.8%
and the the Weight scale test show 17.6%

average.... 15.7% + or - 10% is still on the high side..

Still flat-out ignoring advice I see. You can measure your body fat in 100 different ways and the answer will be the same: you have fat to lose!

"is still on the high side"

He admits right there that he has fat to lose.

wtf according to that he only started training for athletics in October 2011 and started to "solely focus on the sport." in Jan 2012.

Lu Xiaojun is my idol. He has the best physique in the world.

Also, I remember this. It was such BS when they didn't let him take his third snatch.

I'm reading through t-nation articles about the subject...

Any other advice? I have very long forearms so the bar would have to sit in the middle of my neck if it is to stay on the fingers... but I'm also unflexible in the upperbody.

So who knows what my problems are.

If you have long forearms you just place your hands wider on the bar. That's covered in Starting Strength, I think. Look up the mobility wod stuff for rack position, he's got a bunch of videos about it.

Anyone know any good sources/articles discussing the relationship between these? Like hypothetically if I got a wicked good side split and front split, would that make my active straddle (i.e. in front lever, back lever and planche) much wider? Would my squats be way better?
