Or a small hole-in-the-wall gym where serious lifters congregate instead of just "fitness" players.

oh yeah it's been a challenge finding feedback on olympic lifting. It seems like I'm the only one in my gym (which is huge) doing cleans, olympic squats, etc.
I'm not doing anything too heavy yet but so far, i have seen some really good results...from my vertical to overall strength, my body has responded well to this type of training. I want to get good feeback before I start doing real heavy reps.
There's a sports-training complex in town that caters to pros and semi-pro athletes and I may sign up for a couple of sessions just to get some feedback from their trainers.
