Veliko športnikov/rekreativcev se boji olimpijskih dvigov, ker ne poznajo vaj, specifike športa ter zaradi različnih mitov in prepričanj ljudi… Končno si boste lahko prebrali zakaj in za koga se priporoča treniranje oly dvigov! Jeej Predstavil bom nekaj citatov iz bloga A key to athletic excellence. Avtor se osredotoči na profesionalnega igralca baseball-a, šprinterja na 400m z ovirami ter profesionalno igralko golfa. Iz primerov njihovih izboljšanih atletskih sposobnostih lahko razberemo, da oly dvigi lahko bistveno pripomorejo fizični pripravljenosti športnika tako v ekipnih športih (ameriški nogomet, košarka, rokomet, odbojka,…) kot ostalih individualnih športih (šprint, skok v daljino/višino, suvanje krogle, met kladiva, boks, borilne veščine,…).

Other than the abilities of Olympic style weightlifters, is there any proof that practicing the Olympic lifts actually helps athletes? There is an enormous number of examples of athletes who have benefited dramatically from practicing the Olympic lifts. Presenting these cases would require a very large book. I will provide just three examples to make the point. I have chosen those particular examples because they come from athletes who participate in sports which would not normally be expected to benefit very much from ordinary weight training.

Primeri:

1. Steve Bedrosian, (upokojeni) profesionalni baseball igralec:
   His career had very nearly ended five years earlier. When he was thirty-four, Steve lost some of the feeling in two of the fingers of his pitching hand. As a result he had lost the ability to pitch effectively and was forced to take a year off in an effort to rehabilitate his hand. Many baseball experts felt that after this kind of setback his career was over. It was at this point that he met Ben Green, athletic director at the White Oak Athletic Center in Newnan, Georgia (Ben’s accomplishments as a weightlifter and coach were discussed earlier in this book). Ben put Bedrosian on a program of Olympic lift training during his year off . After six months of such training, Bedrosian added eight miles per hour to his fast ball and was able to dunk a basketball(something he had often tried but had never in his life been able to do). Steve made a triumphant return to the mound during the 1993 season.
2. Cindy Schreyer, profesionalna igralka golfa:
   She was introduced to the Olympic lifts by Ben Green in 1993. After approximately eight months of training, Cindy increased her drive by a full forty yards, a staggering improvement for a person already highly skilled at golf.Cindy won her first PGA tournament shortly after this dramatic improvement in her drive occurred.
3. Derrick Adkins, šprinter na 400m z ovirami:
   Derrick had already reached the international level as a 400 meter hurdler when he began training with Lynne (njegova trenerka) in 1990, having won the Atlantic Coast Conference championships and placed sixth at the World University Games. His best time was 49.53 seconds. In less than a year of training on the Olympic lifts, he shaved nearly a second off his already outstanding time (reducing it to 48.6 seconds). An injury sustained during an unfortunate running accident hampered his training for more than a year after that. However, after recovering from his injury and resuming training on the Olympic lifts, he reduced his time by another .9 seconds and went on to win the U.S. Nationals and the Goodwill Games. More recently Derek won the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta.

Needless to say, if a baseball player, a golfer and a hurdler have benefited so much from practicing the Olympic lifts, football players and other athletes who participate in sports in which power is acknowledged to play a more critical role can enjoy and have enjoyed even more direct benefits.
