Rest Day
This is some great footage of side-by-side and overlapped videos of the Olympic lifts analyzed using software called Dartfish. I don't expect you to pick out the little nuances between various lifters; everybody's technique is unique to them because of their individual anthropometry (limb length, etc.). But when the video compares successful versus unsuccessful lifts, see if you can spot the minor faults that caused the miss. Hopefully you'll gain an appreciation for the detail and intricacy of these movements and not be discouraged, but rather encouraged to continue to learn, study, and be patient as we move forward. Learning the basics is relatively straight forward. But to master the basics takes lots of practice and time. If you improve one thing everyday, even if its minor, in a relatively short time you'll see dramatic improvements.
