Learning the Olympic lifts is for too many athletes a shock of frustration and incompetence.
"When examining the reasons offered for not teaching the Olympic lifts we cannot help but suspect that the lifts’ detractors have no first-hand (real) experience with them. We want to see someone, anyone, do a technically sound clean or snatch at any weight and then offer a rationale for the movement’s restricted applicability. Were they dangerous or inappropriate for any particular population, we’d find coaches intimate with the lifts articulating the nature of their inappropriateness. We do not."
