Some bodybuilders can learn a thing or two from weightlifting as well. I dabbled in bodybuilding before focusing on weightlifting and nothing I did before had built my legs like heavy atg squats, even well after beginner's gains. So even if hypertrophy is the goal, exercise selection matters a lot.
I agree, although the Olympic exercises are generally compound, accessory exercises help create hypertrophy
Hey Greg, as someone who is more focused on the physique benefits from training with weights but wants to reap the mobility and strength rewards from oly lifting - what are some of the exercises you‘d suggest ? Power Cleans, Front Squats, Muscle Snatches and Klokov Presses come to mind. Also not dropping but lowering the bar after every rep. Love your channel and your book Greg !
I'd stick to the competition lifts and basic variants (powers, hangs), pulls and squats. MS, klokov press (snatch press really), whatever aren't going to do much for speed/strength, and certainly not above and beyond the previously mentioned lifts.
Catalyst Athletics thank you Greg! Appreciate your time!
Yeah, I guess for people like me , that really enjoy doing the lift , but I won't really adventure north of 120 clean and jerk because I can't afford to get hurt anymore at this point of my life i just enjoy the technique , bodybuilding exercise made sense for overall heath plus feels good have some muscle going 😅.
great analysis, thanks Greg!
Excellent video Greg! 💯
Another great video Greg 💪
Informative video 👍
Hey Greg, thanks for continuing to post these videos. I really enjoy your books as well.
My question: I'm running a fairly advanced program right now (Takano's CMS program from his book; required total is 275@105, I've done 271@101), and the reps are kicking my ass, particularly on the snatch. Right now I'm doing 80% for sets of 4 and getting absolutely obliterated (missing at least one rep per set). Should I break up the volume into more sets of fewer reps or drop the %? Snatch has always been my weaker lift (about 76% of my c+j). I'm 36 and have been WL for about 8.5 years. Thanks for any insight you can provide!
I'd drop the weight so you can complete the reps and the prescribed progression week to week.
@@CatalystAthletics thanks!
Simple as that 😉
Great video Greg, so helpfull when you self-coach. I was wondering if you could do a video on patience with pulling the bar into your hips during snatch or clean. I am practicing it now and it made so much difference in the way I am receiving the bar overhead and it not crushing on me. Thanks for considering this topic.

What do you think of bench presses, do you ever incorporate them into your lifters regiments? Stronglifts 5x5 is what initially got me into weightlifting. My goal was to train my body into one muscle. Never looked back.
For a competitive weightlifting, bench is far down the list of priorities. For an incredibly weak new lifter, it may be valuable, but generally it's unnecessary and there are much better choices that have less potential drawbacks (like reducing mobility or otherwise being stressful on the shoulders), as well as contributing more directly to the actual objects of their use, such as pressing and push pressing.
@@CatalystAthletics thanks coach
Do you have any recommendations for what sort of RPE we should be using on these sort of accessories like bicep, tricep work in terms of having healthy elbows?
8-9 typically but if you're looking for hypertrophy specifically, you'll usually need that 10 at least some of the time.
Hello Greg im a 33 year old 98kg, 6 ft tall weightlifter, My goal/dream is to compete at the master w. Championship august 2022.

Emmanuel, this program is a great free one for you to use. I also really the "2014 American Open Cycle". Both great for leg strength
@@davidmckellar9416 thank You ill check it out
Generally you'd want to be doing the standard strength work, i.e. 1-5 reps typically, but also including at least periods of higher reps (like 8-10) along with more accessory leg work like single leg squat and hinge variations both to support stability and therefore strength but also for some hypertrophy.
@@CatalystAthletics thank You for your time i'll be working on that
My goal is to max my annual Air Force PT test, and be the best weightlifter I can be. How would you suggest I prioritize my week? I’m just starting to learn the lifts, but struggling with organizing/prioritizing my 1-1.5 hour daily training time. allotment. Thanks!
Assuming the AFPT test is like most with a distance run and some calisthenics, I'd train for that and simply add whatever weightlifting work you have time for afterward. That's likely 1-2 lifts/day. If you're still learning the lifts, it's going to be pretty light weight so it's not going to have much effect on the rest of your training. Get some squatting, pulling and pressing strength work in at least 1 day/week each.
Thanku sr
Are protein powder/shakes a must for gaining weight or just regular training?
Enough food is a must - you don't have to get it from shakes, but it can be hard to eat that much.
@@CatalystAthletics alright, thank you
On the general cycle when it says 3 position snatch @ 60% 65% 75% x 4 sets, does that mean 4 sets at each percentage (12 total 3 position snatches)? Or 4 sets total with two sets at one percentage and one set at each of the others (4 total 3 position snatches)? Thank you
That's 1 set each at 60 and 65 and 4 sets at 75
Catalyst Athletics damn 🤣 okay thanks so much 🙏🏾
Hi please can you please explain in back squat we push from toes or heel and does knee should remain over the toes or should i move my hips.
I am very confused because I love your stuff and what starting strength teach or what juggernaut training teach. I am ultra confused.
I practice compound exercise and is more like hobby .Also I am 6ft tall 25 yrs male. Please help
Push through the whole foot. If you want to squat like a weightlifter, ignore Starting Strength. See these -

Great video. I am just wondering why does someone like Lee Sang only do partial push ups and bench press?
You'd have to ask him and his coach.
Should you workout when sore?
Yes.
If the pain is chronic, the training volume may be very high.
Correct, master?
Are big arms bad for weightlifting?
They can limit mobility primarily in the clean rack position.
