Gymnastics Strength in Fighting - some talk

[Philipp Hornung]

I have to assume his opinions on the olympic lifts would be similar to his opinions on gymnastics, ie that it requires/creates incredible stuff, but would take too much time to learn which could be better spent learning how to actually fight.

Well, seeing that Oly wrestler use Oly lifts regularly in order to gain more power, I tend to disagree. The more so, since it's possible to scale down the lifts.
