why do people look at me when I snatch at the gym?
Im only at around 180lbs/82kg when I snatch but I can never tell if I’m getting mired or if they think im a try hard

If its a commercial gym people just aren't used to seeing Olympic lifts like that. So it's somewhat of a spectacle, even more so if it's a high weight. In powerlifting gyms or college/athlete gyms it's pretty common.
tfw I can’t wait till I can do 2pl8, flex on zoomers
These.
Snatching is so much fun.
It's cool to C&J their deadlift. Being able to snatch it will be an even greater mog.
I think it scares people. A bad squat may kill you, a bad bench may also. A bad snatch is a runaway weight potentially at other gym goers.
Also likely jealous that they can't do it. Folks shit their pants on a power clean at my gym.
Most people go to the gym in their 20s for a grand total of 3 months before they retire back to their lifestyle of couch and videogames.
Guess what most of their workouts consist of.
I'll give you a hint: It sure af isn't straight up oly lifts
I would think you are a weirdo who should find a more suitable gym unless you are doing it in a designated platform with bumper plates. If you are doing it on a designated platform then you are just surrounded by dyel morons.
BINGO. COULDNT HAVE PUT IT BETTER THAN THIS.

illiterate moron
Literally where else would someone do oly lifts, you dumbass? Have you ever actually set foot in a gym?
it took me 15 seconds to find some moron doing them on a deadlift platform with iron weights
>Staged video
A simple "no" would have sufficed.
you are dumb and gay
Why do you even come to a fitness board if you don't even lift?
cringe gaslighting attempt, illiterate moron. you need to go back.
Lmao, replies with someone else's video and not your own video. BASED.
show me your 60kg snatch guys
Okay, this is about 5 months since I started doing oly lifts.
Now post your 100kg snatch.
It's a skill that many people don't bother learning.
It's also very visually abrupt.
It's like seeing someone do a flip.
Snatch b***hes
On a dedication/hardcore level of lifting you have
Machines -> Calisthenics -> Bodybuilding with free weights -> Powerlifting with free weights -> Weightlifting
It's unironically scary to many people, heavy weight flying over your head, the banging of the bars, the rapid movements, the sounds of your heels banging into the ground, people unironically thing the gym is some library to meditate in
yeah it makes sense, but tbh unless your literally regarded not sure how you can drop the bar on you ya know?
Almost all dyels at the gym are literally regarded, and they'll just walk onto the platform or stand right behind you, so if you fail behind, you'd end up hitting them.
Same type of dyel attention whoring as calisthenics.
