Exactly. As long as your workout routine isn't flat out horrible, it is eating lots of food that is the key factor in gaining mass, not so much about choosing workout routine A over workout routine B.

Regardless of whether you agree with it or not, this is just hilarious:

I threw a bit of shot and discus a while back but I did use to train at a gym where we had an Olympic shot putter train there. In the summer of 2012 (when it wasn't just competition season but this...

I think its a mental thing, whereby right after you've done the 'explosion' phase, you don't start waiting for the bar but go straight down. Haven't tried it on snatches but on cleans I've found that...

Cleans
Snatches
Jerks
Push presses
Front/back squats

After a weekend of no lifting (usually would have been 2 heavy days) I come back to hit 3 new PRs in training: 5kg PR in the power clean (no video), full clean and paused front squat. I think I got...

If you're an athlete then focus on a few key freeweight exercises and do them frequently. Back squats, lunges, step ups, deadlift variations 2-3 times a week. I would otherwise say cleans and front...

Can't get your link to work but the only thing I do have to say is that there is nothing wrong with knees passing over toes. In fact they should be passing over your toes if you want to do a squat to...

It depends on the kind of volume and intensity you are doing. From the exercises you listed you seem to be going for more of a bodybuilding style routine in which case your proposed recover should be...

Has anyone ever tried maxing out on non hook snatch grip deadlifts? Tried it today, got to 150kg with hands at the collars.

It sounds similar to what I had which was tight hamstrings. That was because I was training heavy but not stretching my hamstrings. Once I started stretching, the pain went away in a few days and...

I fully understand what you're saying but you're seriously overthinking this. No need to focus on things that will make little to no difference to you. Just lift, eat and repeat and the results will...

A lifting platform that is combined with a half rack: the most universal piece of equipment on which one can do their entire workout and not need any additional equipment. And get tons of them. ...

Compound exercises involving the whole body, particularly the legs. Your main lifts should be:

- The clean and its variations
- The snatch and its variations
- Front and back squats
- Bench...

As in not fast enough? I have found that doing cleans from the high hang helps because you have less potential to put upward momentum of the bar, hence you have to drop down really fast to make the...

Why is the slight engaging of the quads a bad thing? Your trainer seems to be implying that this is something he´d rather not have you do but I don´t understand why.

If you don´t make contact with the thighs then you´re doing it wrong as the bar is too far away from your body and you aren´t truly putting your legs and hips into it.

Another really good clean...

Wow, that is very good weight. If you´re not competing already you should give it a try.

Anyway for me at least the limiting factor has always been front squat strength. You need to have some...

You will never be perfectly upright in the front squat, there will always be some forward lean but less so than in the front squat.

As for your other issue: the problem is ankle flexibility (or...

The best power clean video I have seen:

OP, watch this over and over again and mimic what he is doing.

Without a video of your lift, its hard to give detailed feedback.
