The Clean High Pull "For most athletes, power is more important than maximal strength. Power, or speed strength, can be defined as the amount of work performed per unit of time. Research has shown that the weightlifting movements result in a superior average power output compared to powerlifting movements."--Allen Hedrick for TNation.com
".....one advantage of the clean high pull over the full clean is that the athlete doesn't have to catch the bar. As a result, you can typically use heavier loads. This is especially true for athletes with technique issues in the catch phase where a lighter than optimal load must be used because of their inability to catch the bar correctly."---Allen Hedrick for TNation.com
Navy SEALs Rescue Hostages, Snuff Somali Kidnappers Thank you Naval Special Warfare troops and all Special Operations personnel! Another job well done! The SEALs and other Special Mission Unit members are the best combat athletes in the world. They understand that not possessing elite fitness is detrimental to their mission and their lives. Check out the movie trailer clip in this link. There's a fictional movie about SEALs where the "actors" are actual SEALs.--George
Tim Thomas, goalie for the Boston Bruins said that “the Federal government has grown out of control, threatening the Rights, Liberties and Property of the People.” For that reason, Thomas said, “I exercised my right as a Free Citizen. ... This was not about politics or party, as in my opinion both parties are responsible for the situation we are in as a country.”---Washington Post
