“…The main finding was that the deadlift exercise was effective to develop muscle power and increase the duration of barbell acceleration during the movement. Conversely, these positive results were related to submaximal loads (30,50, and 70% of 1RM performance). Thus, it can be hypothesized that the deadlift could be associated with weightlifting performance at submaximal loads but not at maximal efforts.…”

“…Researchers have previously reported moderate, high, and almost perfect correlations (r 5 0.56-0.98) between 1 repetition maximum (1RM) performance in selected foundation strength exercises in lower and upper limbs (back squat, front squat, and overhead press) and snatch and clean and jerk performance (16,29,30,35). Stone et al (35) examined the relationship between maximum muscle strength in the squat and clean and jerk in national and international male and female weightlifters (body mass: 83.4 6 27.0 kg for males and 68.9 6 18.5 kg for females).…”

Zecchin, A, Puggina, EF, Hortobágyi, T, and Granacher, U. Association between foundation strength and weightlifting exercises in highly trained weightlifters: support for a general strength component. J Strength Cond Res 37(7): 1375–1381, 2023—In addition to specific weightlifting exercises (i.e., clean and jerk and snatch), foundation strength exercises (i.e., overhead press, front squat, and deadlift) constitute an integral part of the weightlifters' training regime. The unexamined concept behind this training plan is that foundation strength exercises are associated with clean and jerk and snatch performance, implying the existence of a general strength component. We thus determined the relationship between performance in foundation strength exercises (overhead press, front squat, and deadlift) and weightlifting exercises (clean and jerk and snatch) in weightlifters. Well-trained weightlifters (N = 19, age: 26.8 ± 4.4 years; body mass index: 27.6 ± 2.3 kg·m−2; and training history: 4.6 ± 0.8 years) performed 1 repetition maximum tests (1RM) in foundation strength and weightlifting exercises, over 14 days, in a randomized order. We observed significant correlations in 1RM performance between the overhead press and snatch (r = 0.69), front squat and snatch (r = 0.73), overhead press and clean and jerk (r = 0.67), and front squat and clean and jerk (r = 0.72, all r values: p < 0.01). No significant correlations were found for 1RM performance between the snatch and deadlift or between the clean and jerk and deadlift (r-range: 0.20–0.58; p > 0.05). Stepwise linear regression revealed that 1RM performance in the overhead press and front squat explained 62% of the variance in snatch 1RM performance (F = 5.51; p < 0.04). Overhead press and front squat 1RM performance explained 59% of the variance in the clean and jerk 1RM performance (F = 5.14; p < 0.04). Our results demonstrate the existence of a general strength component between selected foundation strength exercises and weightlifting performance. However, the use of the front squat and overhead press to increase 1RM performance in weightlifting exercises needs to be determined in future research using a different methodological approach (i.e., longitudinal protocols), given that the observed correlations do not necessarily imply causation.

The aim of this study was to determine the associations between the front and back squat, countermovement jump (CMJ) and deep squat jump (DSJ) force–time metrics, and weightlifting performance in top-level weightlifters. Thirteen top-level weightlifters who classified for the World Championship 2023 participated. The heaviest successful snatch and clean and jerk were recorded within a preparation session as performance indicators. The front and back squat one-repetition maximums (1RMs) were evaluated in separate training sessions. The average of three maximum CMJs and DSJs were recorded using a force plate, and jump height, propulsive net impulse, and peak power were calculated for further analysis. Pearson’s correlation coefficients were used to determine the associations between variables. Statistical significance was set at p ≤ 0.05. The front and back squat 1RMs were significant and nearly perfectly associated with weightlifting performance (p < 0.001, r = 0.98–0.99). CMJ and DSJ propulsive net impulse displayed nearly perfect associations with weightlifting performance (p < 0.001, r = 0.96–0.99), while jump height is a less promising metric to assess the weightlifters’ ballistic capabilities. This study reinforces that lower body maximum strength and ballistic capabilities are closely associated with top-level weightlifters’ performance and are of practical importance to monitor their neuromuscular function.
