You’re always going to be stronger than what you’re used to doing in training.
It would be interesting to just work a labor job for a year without lifting, and see where you are on a super total (powerlifting and weightlifting, even the pre-1972 weightlifting) at the end of it.
The right work and you’d find yourself having gained in strength.
I’m convinced any training where you make progress carries over across the board.
I’m getting better at pullups, so therefore every pull is improving.
I laughed at how easy a power snatch was outside in winter.
It’s carryover from the pullups.
The presses felt easy – because of how much time I spend inverted free balancing and against the wall in handstands.
I did a variation on what I call the “york combo”.
•floor to overhead.
•bar to upper back.
•10 squats
•bar to overhead
•lower to ground
I used a power snatch, then a heaving push jerk to get it back overhead after the squats.
You could do nothing but lifts from the floor, never using squat stands and be the strongest person you’ll ever find.
Power snatch into overhead squats.
Overhead into the york combo.
Press off of cleans.
Bent row.
Deadlift.
It doesn’t matter that leg and press work is limited by pulling strength.
It’s fine.
Get to a 405 power clean, overhead, 10 squats, back overhead, lower it nicely, and then tell me that’s not the strongest dude anywhere.
If you 20 rep overhead squat #s some are happy to 20 rep back squat?
Ditto.
A 225+ power snatch into 20 overhead squats is very possible, and with a mental reframe something likely easily done by world class weightlifters.
Probably even by a girl much smaller than you.
Just train with effort.
Everything else is minutia.
