I was adding them for the benefit of explosive power in the legs. It ties in the Rippetoe program I've been following for a while. I've just been avoiding adding them. It's 10x more complex than squats or deadlifts.
I'll have to weight the options. Maybe a little coaching would be a good thing just to make sure that all of my other lifts are falling in line.
I don't plan on ever becoming an olympic lifter. I'm just working through the program.
Does anyone know of a good coach in the KC area?
