Starr article on OL Movements

Here

At some point, I'll start alternating between Push-Presses/Strict Presses/Jerks for overhead training.

"If the bar tends to pause at eye level when the weight gets heavy and you’re forced to press it out, that’s okay, even desirable."

This sounds like a horrible idea to me...

"That’s because it’s actually easier to jerk a weigh after cleaning it than it is to take it from a rack and jerk it."

Surprisingly, this is true for me. It's much more comfortable after a clean, even a heavy one. I still don't know why.

increased tendon tension from the clean?

No, it's cause you already made the weight your bitch and its scared.

Nathan is right. I withdraw my argument.
