Well yeah but a squat is more controllable exercise. The bar stays in one place (on your back) and you just move your body. You can also be much more precise in the amount of weight you can safely squat.

In a snatch you can miss a lift with what you'd think is a safe weight because it's much more technical. Plus, the bar flies around and needs to be stabilized by the arms/shoulders which is much harder to do. It's one thing to squat and another to jump with a heavy bar and put it over your head and we both know it.

You're missing the point ^^^

First off, gyms, in contrary to popular beliefs, don't grow in trees. In my area there are barely 3 gyms with 2 of them being pretty much "health" gyms with no free weights. The 3rd, where I go, has free weights but you won't see anybody doing snatches and cleans and dropping the bar on the floor.

These are perfectly acceptable exercises as clean and snatch replacements^^^

I don't know how you can eat cow meat... first of all it really sucks taste wise and secondly, and most importantly, it takes about 10 minutes to masticate one piece at a time.

Then why don't you warm up to a heavy 5 rep set and then come down from there for the rest of your 4 sets of 5?

That guy on the right played in Blue Moon with Cybill Shepard and Bruce Willis... I love that show.
