You act as though i go to the gym and only do benchpress or something dude.  All I said was that typically i like doing things slowly and efficiently, didn't say i don't work out my core.  I like to do certain things quicker than others like squats i do quickly and explosively.  For bench i like to lower the bar slowly to my chest than explode up, slowly lower down and explode up.  Plenty of lifts involve your core, in fact just about any lift you do standing up works your core.  I have a buddy who is a firefighter i used to workout with very often.  Sometimes we'd hit the gym, other times we'd do real world workouts: Flipping giant tires, pushing cars up hill, different kinds of heavy rope exercises, kettle ball, punching bag, hand pads.




Well, I didn't even respond to you in my last post, I was just going to ignore you, but you wanted to keep arguing when I stopped, so ok man.  Furthermore, I never even mentioned core workouts, dunno why you're going off on that.

Yeah, and Im sure you do all your heavy rope exercises, kettlebells, punching bags, and hand pads all slow and controlled right?  Cause its better thank "jerky" "any day"?

Your punches, are they slow and controlled?  Or do you use your hips in a ballistic motion to fire your arm out of your body? 

FFS man, you say that slow is controlled is better all this time (obviously false) and then claim to do ballistic exercises too, after bashing "jerky" movements.  Slow and controlled is good for some, obviously.  But if you want to have explosive power needed for things like fighting and sports, you need to train explosively.




I think that both are necessary.

The way I learned the snatch was by practising the following exercises.

Overhead squats: go nice and deep ATG. This will improve your balance and give you a feel for squatting with weight over your head. Start with the bar and work your way up. Great exercise for the core, shoulders and pretty much the whole body.

Snatch grip deadlift: Just like regular deadlifts but use a wide double overhand gip. Lift explosively and go heavy.

High pulls/power shrugs: Here just focus on ACCELERATING the bar upwards. Use a snatch grip. This exercise will give you a feel for your explosive capabilities.

Snatch Balance: Similar benefits to the overhead squat, but here you start with the bar on your back and you "drop" into an overhead squat, then stand up holding the weight above your head before dropping it back on your traps. Again, start with the bar.

Once you are comfortable with these exercises, put them together and go for it!

Yeah I forgot to mention those!

I also do lots of overhead sqauts with the bar to prepare for a set.

For the snatch balance, I usually start with it on my chest in a front squat rather than back squat position, makes it harder.

"A human being is part of the whole, called by us 'Universe'; a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest -- a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness.

This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and affection for a few persons nearest us.

Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole nature in its beauty.

Nobody is able to achieve this completely but striving for such achievement is, in itself, a part of the liberation and a foundation for inner security."

Albert Einstein
