Guys and Gals,

I am strongly thinking about trying an Olympic lifting meet. I have only been competing in powerlifting for the past 4 years and think that I may do alright with OL. I was just wondering if there were any websites or routines that some of you may have with some nice beginner routines to try. My best raw squat is 227.5k and my best raw deadlift is 275k. Raw bench is at 190k, but I doubt that helps a whole lot with the jerk. I have been competing only in the USAPL and am 100% drug free. The gym I train at has bumper plates and enough equipment (i feel) to train OL. Any ideas or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Brady Stewart
