Snatch - I've never found another lift that when you get it spot on you instantly see lights flashing, guns firing and the orchestra belt out the 1812 overture. Fellow snatchers will know what I'm talking about although the music may vary from person to person.

I frequently saw lights flashing, guns firing and the 1812 overture on clean & jerk just before passing out before the jerk - perhaps a techincal problem?

Snatch!!!

Which is also my most hated lift.

When it goes right, and you hit a perfect snatch (oo-er) you hear the Gong go in the background, and all in the world is well, there isnt another feeling like it (outside of sex), as you sit in at the bottom, knowing that the weight is perfectly fixed and that you could sit there a while and pass the time of day with bemused onlookers, a feeling of superior well being fills you to the core, you fight the urge to cry "Bow down before me, for I am your King!!!"

On the other hand, when they are going bad, they are the most god awful, painful, and spiteful thing on God's green earth.

I agree its snatch, i can barely do a power snatch but when it goes right it just feels awesome, but when they go wrong for the day it sucks. Other than that deadlifting a 1rpm is very good when u lock it out

I agree with your disagreement.

If you can snatch right you can't shag wrong. & you can take that to the bank. Grin
