    Literally all Olympic Lifts are a waste of time unless you specifically want to be better at doing Olympic Lifts for the sake of doing Olympic Lifts. I guess if you want to compete or just find them fun or something then go ahead, but if you're just trying to develop your body they are a waste of time and potentially extremely dangerous. They confer no additional benefit to simply lifting and are far worse for bodily development.

      Correct.

      Olympic lifts are a performance lift, they exist as a display of strength and skill. They're not something you train with unless you intend to do them in a competition.

      Olympic weightlifters easily have some of the most well developed physiques, wtf are you two gays even talking about.

        you realize they do a bunch of accessories right Black person

          Because the accessories are just as important as the two main lifts. Heavy back squats are essentially an accessory lift for weightlifting.

          People that think olympic weightlifting is just repeating the snatch and CnJ day in and day out have never attempted proper programming for it.

    Great for explosiveness and sports like wrestling or football. Waste of time for bodybuilding.

    Lifting as heavy as you possibly can will blow you up more than anything else

      It is not the type of exercise that you can take to failure, good for athleticism, but not for bodybuilding.

    I recently started doing them too. They are good for athleticism and power as opposed to strength and hypertrophy. Muscles worked are posterior chain + traps + forearms. They hit similar muscles to the deadlift basically.

    It's funny how we are all collectively transitioning from powerlifting/bodybuilding into martial arts and Olympic lifting. I think it's the natural next step.

    >Motherfrickers are literally out here rupturing disks, getting paralyzed, breaking bones, dislocating limbs, tearing muscles, snapping tendons, dying, etc
    Only motherfrickers that never trained front squat with proper hand placement are getting those though.
