Maybe, when I jerk I don't really push the bar up with my arms, I drive with the legs off the shoulders then drop (push myself) under. The bar only goes up to about the top of my head, the rest is me dropping under the bar before it comes back down
I don't get it either, but that's what some say
I don't see a problem with it of its used as an accessory if the individual needs more upper body strength..
Good idea!!! What sub forum?
You guys wear Olympic weightlifting shoes for benching?? Seriously, why?
Do you wear a belt for curls in the squat rack too?

Done.
What the fuck is going on
Benching is great for the Olympic lifts. It strengthens the arms very effectively. Also there is no way in hell that benching will make your chest so tight that stretching won't fix it. Fuck off with that shit. If you can't jerk as much as you can clean then you're a retard for not doing everything you can to jerk better. Surprise surprise, this means getting stronger with benching and pressing from a multitude of angles and working on the initial drive
This thread would be killer if Oni had an actual olympic lifter to argue with.

You must spread some reputation around before giving it to 0ni again.
