In this session all the lifters worked up to their opening attempts, to ensure that their were no flaws in their competition technique which might receive red lights from the international referees. In the final weeks before the competition all the athletes are focusing less on strength building and more on developing their confidence and honing their technique so that they can attack the weights when they are on the stage in the first week of September.
