BgMc31 is absolutely right. The Olympic lifts have high potential for injury. That being said, you can pack on slabs of muscle with the various cleans, presses, and snatch variations out there. Olympic lifts, unlike some of the other lifts, are heavily predicated on technique, in that your form and technique are of utmost importance because they rely on power and weight acceleration, not brute strength.

Once you get the techniques down and start bowing the bar while you are doing power cleans, people are gonna say "that's one crazy strong dude." Watch them cats on the Olympics, they are SO powerful it's ridiculous
