The lift when done correctly that is. Not like the clown in the OP. I agree with you there isn't much necessity for it in general fitness.

The lift is designed to train/enhance the fast twitch muscle fibers resulting in more explosiveness. Same as a power clean.

i had rebound and deleted it before typing. When i say lay up, i mean in traffic driving up at the basket. Not standing flat footed in warm ups. Not much difference in the need for a burst between putting the ball up and taking the ball back down on a rebound.

i would make the case that this lift can benefit all athletes whose sport requires any anaerobic activity.

quote:gotcha, I'm thinking layup as "drive to the basket, leap off one foot". It's an effective exercise, that's unquestionable. I use a couple substitutes that don't require all the technical aspects of the Olympic variation

Benefit isn't in doubt. It's risk vs reward

Why not just emphasize power cleans/c&js?
Hell, even plain old thrusters can accomplish what you want with minimal risk compared to snatches.

Gotcha. What kind of training do you do?
I do snatches from time to time. I don't have a real necessity for it, but it is what it is. I at least like to think that it may give me a few more yards off the tee-box.
Haven't done it with serious weight since the glory days of HS football.

Snatches demand a shite ton of function from the shoulders. 90% of the people I see doing them, have dysfunction in the shoulder

Just finished. I'm smoking a Benson and Hedges now.

I'd agree with that. I only take issue with what the original dude said.

Take issue with it.
Making that lift a core part of a crossfit regime is retarded. It has no place in the hands of amateur lifters under the wrong coaching.

teach them regularly. If I was trying to improve a bball players explosiveness on a layup, the snatch wouldn't be in the top 10. But go ahead and explain, I'll listen
I wasnt talking about basketball. Just when someone said(i thought it was you) that they have no benefit

The problem with people doing any exercise is not the exercise, it's the application of the exercise. They're either not ready , capable or qualified

I agree with this also.

You said it benefits no one other than people training Oly Lifting. This is going way too far. There is a ton of beneficial carry over to other sports. Proper coaching is a must though.
