Three things I wish someone had told me before starting Weightlifting

After 4 months of Weightlifting I want to share what I wished I'd known at the start.

First: mobility requirements for beginners — it hits earlier and harder than the internet suggests. Budget for it practically and mentally. Second: the chalk you buy first will probably be wrong — ask your coach before spending money. Third: percentages and programming is the foundation everything else builds on, but it looks boring from the outside. Resist the temptation to rush toward advanced power clean before the fundamentals are solid.

the moment the third pull clicks is the reward for getting through all of that. It's worth it.
