Did you start off with a good squat before learning the lifts? Realistically with a 240 clean you could even get away with a sub 300 squat. Also remember that the carry over from squat to lift and...

I found going out to the collars was easier. I have a pretty wide arm span though. I think gripping the bar is easier when your hands have the collar to press out against. I would only go all the...

You are likely around 1 rep for

185-190 ATG squat (though not realistic if this is an injured lift, 185 may kill you or it may be super easy but painful)
125 BB curl
235 Incline bench
65-70lb...

As far as I know majority rule has never been "American". Thank God for the separation of powers, we could have ended up like France.

Actually that is exactly what would happen. I never thought something as basic as relative intensity would be argued here but apparently you are that dumb. What if the most you could lift was 1lbs...

People may be able to help you more if you give more info. How have you been working out up to now, i.e. days per week, what exercises and what rep range? What is you current Bench Press personal...

Lift heavy weights. Your question is too vague. There is almost infinity bench press information on the web and increasing your bench is one of the most talked about topics on this site.

Captain...

I hope we can agree that power snatches are faster than power cleans.

Full snatch vs Power clean, you are lifting the bar to similar heights (lower chest) and really depending on the lifter one...

I was by no means a strong squatter. If you divide the camps into two, those with massive strong legs and cores that can grind out heavy reps through brute force... and those that use stretch...

I worked at Walmart pushing carts for like 1-1/2 years in college during which I was probably most interested in bodybuilding. I did the usual 3-5 day split routine with plenty of calories and...

I am just over 6'3" with long femurs and shins and a short torso. I am naturally flexible pretty much everywhere EXCEPT hamstrings. While not being a strong squatter I am capable of going quite...

Is the flexibility issue with just the full snatch? Can you do an overhead squat or drop snatches/snatch balances? Those could help a lot in getting you into the bottom position of the snatch.

I was always twice as excited to hit a snatch or power snatch PR than I was to do a clean and jerk. Snatch is just a more fun lift.

I would do full range squats, i.e. as far down as you can go while maintaining good form (what others call ATG)

Doing heavy partials would have the opposite effect of promoting strong healthy...

The reps looked pretty good to me. Couldn't see your legs but they seemed deep. Have to ask... 365%. Not sure that's doable for most people.

Yeah, and muscular strength would relate to the cross sectional area of all the fibers of a given muscle, hence its tensile strength or the maximum force that the muscle is capable of withstanding. ...

Strength in terms of physics is the ability to withstand a force without fracturing or breaking. Therefore piling 2000lbs onto your back and just holding it there would be a good demonstration of...

It's just proportion and flexibility. Full squat is just different depending on who you are. If I had to guess I can get within about 6-8 inches off the ground. I have longgggg femurs and shins,...

This is also very extremely true.
