    Power Cleans, Clean and Jerk, Snatch, Power Jerk...I'M CONFUSED!

    I've been trying to develope some power with compound exercises...I'm doing squats, benchpress and deadlifts primarily. I also do another form of olympic lift, the one I'm doing I THINK is called Power Jerks. There are so many variations and names, it confuses me.

    Can someone please explain to me the difference between power jerks, cleans, snatch, power cleans, clean and jerk and whatnot? Man... So many variations.

    Is it really that difficult to use Google? Or Youtube? The laziness of some people makes me lose faith in society sometimes....

    Have a look at this: http://exrx.net/Lists/OlympicWeightlifting.html
    Strength + Speed = Power

    If you never fail, you aren't truly pushing yourself to the limit. If you never push yourself to the limit, how do you know what you're truly capable of?
