He's obviously doing something right seeing as he's earning a living as a strength athlete and you aren't.

[MLGsharp900]

i bet he knows what hes doing but for the sake of demonstration he should have caught the bar while ATG

[krautstampflsepp]

watching a professional strongman teaching weightlifting is epic

[balage15]

This isn't snatch... It's a bad joke -.-' (N)

[kakens16]

this video is so wrong!!!!! verd bad technic!!! you can look mines videos!

[chrischaos4]

he's a pro strongman, obviously no1 has heard of him

[XfrostgiantX]

I agree you won't learn the lifts from any videos, but I don't get the hate. Guy isn't an Oly lifter, he's not trying to coach the next Shane Hamman. Different people use the quick lifts for different purposes.

[nk29382]

He has not a clue..lol fucking powerlifters trying to teach oly lifts... put that bar down before you confuse yourself, stick to the non technical shit like bench and deadlifts

[hwgraham3]

yall r haters look uo who he is..

[Kelol100]

At least he looks big, but I don't think he got that mass and strength with snatch.

[chavios]

i honestly think this website/video company just pulled this random dude from a gym to do these weightlifting videos on very short notice and paid this guy pretty good money which is why he did these videos. Im sure he made up random terminology like "triple extension" on the spot.

[Chiefontheditty]

@chavios no... he probably googled the lifts 30 min before starting lol

[lpspartan60]

@chavios look up who travis ortmayer is

[ThePerformanceCentre]

@DanielSel Agility and perfect technique is how they get so explosive!

[bilskur]

Why the fuck would you teach something you don't even know how to do yourself? I hate the type of people who rush into teaching.

[needabloodyname]

why the fuck is a strongman teaching oly lifting?

[mikesomething]

@needabloodyname y the fuck are u a moron shit cunt

[needabloodyname]

@mikesomething what a well educated individual you must be

[panjabiwarrior]

he should stick to world strongest man bollocks,

his fucking clueless,every thing he was saying was wrong he was making it sound like body building & he even jumped back when he snatched, what a twat.

[umbilicaltapeworm]

@panjabiwarrior so it's probably been a while, maybe he's been a little busy pulling fucking Mac trucks or lifting 500 lb stones over his head. this dude is a much more well rounded athlete than any powerlifter. he has to be strong in much more than three or four simple movements. so his technique is bad, enough said. wouldn't it make more sense to enlighten everyone on the proper technique rather than just bashing this shit?

[panjabiwarrior]

@umbilicaltapeworm dude you cant compare olympic weight lifting with truck pulling let it be the biggest truck in the world,so all weight lifters should make weight lifting video & put the on you tube dont be a fucking idiot,there is plenty of lifters on here with the right technique,watching this chump there will be plenty of youngsters picking up the wrong technique if some one does not know what there doing why attempt such a thing???

[AntillRS]

@panjabiwarrior i dont think anyone with any sense will think they know how to really perform a snatch after a 2 minute youtube video. i see what you are saying but i think this was just to show what a snatch looks like.

[umbilicaltapeworm]

@panjabiwarrior good point but I'm not comparing just saying if you think this is the wrong way then enlighten the kiddies on the right way or show them a vid with the right technique. might be a little more constructive.

[panjabiwarrior]

@umbilicaltapeworm dude i could do a better job then him,but if you gona teach kids you should be a really good lifter or a good coach im niether,from his technique he shows his not a weight lifter any weight lifter would spot that.

[AntillRS]

@panjabiwarrior bit harsh dont you think

[ShotokanKarateRules]

Erm, wtf.

[playerk7]

this guy sucks

[Honken]

I've never understood the necessity of teaching something of which you haven't grasped yourself.

[umbilicaltapeworm]

@Honken why are you watching this if you already know how to do it? what's the necessity of that?

[Honken]

@umbilicaltapeworm There's different schools inside OL. I've been taught the russian/eastern-european approach. When I traveled abroad I realized how differently people train and execute the pulls and how they go about training them. Since then I've been interested about learning more approaches, hoping that this video would show something more than a guy teaching lifts he's been practicing for what looks like 2 days.

[93curry07]

should i do reps eg 10 & rep 4 3 sets lik bodybuilding or just do 1 rep and add weight everytime??? thanks

[valdigurka]

@93curry07 never go over 6 reps

[dec4dence]

thanks man

[PnOyShadeShootER]

he might not be doing it right...but that could be do to how light that weight is

[wullebulle123]

can you make a video doing a deep front- and backsquat - i would like to see that

[AronAnus]

haha i would like to see him SNATCH not powersnatch. i think he hasnt got the flexibility to do a full snatch.

[metallica42425]

@AronAnus Yeah you took the words out of my mouth. If this were titled power snatch it would be much better

[mikesomething]

@AronAnus thick cunt

[tastefulphrasing]

@AronAnus I'll bet he has better flexibility than you think

[badookoo]

@AronAnus I'll bet he does.

[Dodo5981]

@AronAnus whats the difference between a snatch and a powersnatch ? 

[JackHarnum]

@Dodo5981

[drag951]

this guy didn't get that way from olypic lifting he has terrible form. i'm in highschool and have way better form STEROIDS!!!!

[jaredcave]

even if he was using steroids he wud stil have 2 train

look at the size of him...he must be doing something rite init

[GavinGrey88]

Quit being jealous. You'll get there some day.

[d00m33]

his form isn't terrible. all lifts need work on form, as long as you have the foundations down so you're not putting your body in a position of shear.

[xSeekUpx]

DO NOT USE THIS VIDEO FOR A TRAINING METHOD! It is completely wrong and looks like this guy got it from a mediocre video as well. You used very little arm strength at all....and your feet split way too far.

[lurchpanda]

i noticed in your C&J video that you used your arms also........ wow. I completely agree with oustme.

People. if you want to learn how to clean and jerk or snatch properly find someone who has done it for a long ass time. it is not a lift where you watch a 3 minute video and perfect it from that. I have almost been doing olympic weight lifting for a year now and I'm still learning how to perform those lifts properly. It takes a lot of hard work and effort to do them correctly but well worth it.

[Honken]

Though a bit harsch, I agree with the other poster. Either he hasn't been doing them alot himself or no one never taught him how to.

[oustme]

who told this jackass that this was the correct way to perform a snatch. technique terrible, teaching points all wrong, clearly the steroids back in high school have effected his brain size and increased his ignorance

[venerable]

he does say triple extension very well though
