---

The techniques used in competitive weightlifting - the snatch, clean, jerk and their variations - are widely acknowledged as the best power-development exercises for the major team and individual power sports. Although they recognize the benefits of these exercises, many coaches and athletes have been hesitant to incorporate the exercises into a programme because they are technically complex and physically demanding. This video aims to demonstrate the safest, most effective means of developing power through the use of core weightlifting exercises. Hosted by Harvey Newton, former US Olympic team weight-lifting coach and former executive director of the National Strength and Conditioning Association, this video presents a detailed look at the safest, most effective learning progressions for the snatch, clean, jerk, pulling assistance exercises, squats and other lifts.
