Do you ever wonder why we do Olympic lifts like the clean and jerk or the snatch? 

Numerous studies have demonstrated the Olympic lift's unique capacity to develop strength, muscle, power, speed, coordination, vertical leap, muscular endurance, bone strength and the physical capacity to withstand stress.  It's also worth mentioning that the Olympic lifts are the only lifts shown to increase maximum oxygen uptake, the most important marker for cardiovascular fitness.

Sadly, the Olympic lifts are seldom seen in the commercial fitness community because of their inherently complex and technical nature.  CrossFit makes them available to anyone with the patience and persistence to learn.
