Floor press would be a great alternative, I agree!for what its worth I think snatch helped grow my OHP as well.
also if you're shy a bench, maybe floor press as a substitute for bench press.

Okie dokie.you're persistent in your generosity but i'm going to decline your offer. thank you so much though. i promise that some vids will come regardless.
yeah most people aren't ambijerkers.That's normal. You're going to have a preferred side. The top folks in the game only jerk on 1 side.
yup, same here.To help people find the forward leg for their split jerk, I normally give them a gentle shove from behind when they're not looking. Whatever foot you put forward first is the foot/leg you should lead with when jerking You'll always go with 1 side over the other.
welcome, i like checking out your log too!Late, but in! I like the training
That's kinda how I feel about it, too. I would rather really focus on working the muscle groups or movements that need to be worked.I used to be kind of against using straps if I didn't need them, but these days if I'm working on high pulls or SG deads I just go ahead and use my straps because my goal of the workout isn't to destroy my hands or grip, its the posterior mostly.
I hear you there. ironically, when I get more gassed I find the later reps get me moving under the bar quicker on the jerk cause I just don't have the power to muscle it up high anymore.Sets beyond 2 reps for c+j are really more of a question of conditioning. It's not that I'm out of shape that way but it's amazing how your focus on form breaks down a little once your heart is beating hard, your thighs start to burn a little and your breathing pretty good. Honestly I think as long as I just shot for one set and really strove to keep my form at clean as tight as possible, I might be able to do a touch more weight for a triple.
haha, i know what you mean, maybe we could call it the desperate dive. my depth isn't really that substantial yet for heavy weight but i'm working on it, at least i'm consistent enough now that i always feel like my upper body is pushing me under and locking out rather than putting any additional force on the barI hear you there. ironically, when I get more gassed I find the later reps get me moving under the bar quicker on the jerk cause I just don't have the power to muscle it up high anymore.
thank you sir, i think i'm going to space out the time between tests in conjunction with keeping my weight increases modest so that i can keep making significant strength gains with each testSolid FS volume man.
