When talking about Olympic lifts we should use a three-word term:
First word: position of the catch/reception of the barbell (muscle; power; squat; split)
Muscle = catch with no bending of the knees
Power = catch with a slight bending of the knees (less than 90 degrees)
Squat = catch with an important bending of the knees
Split = catch with one leg forward and one leg backwards
Second word: general type of lift (snatch; clean; jerk)
Snatch = lifting the bar from the starting position straight to overhead
Clean = lifting the bar from the starting position to the shoulders/clavicles
Jerk = lifting the bar from the shoulders to overhead
Third word: starting position (floor; hang; blocks)
Floor = the bar starts on the floor
Hang = the bar starts above or below the knees, with the lifter holding it there
Blocks = the bar starts on blocks leaving it above or below the knees
These classifications give us the following lifts:
Muscle snatch from the floor
Muscle snatch from the hang
Muscle snatch from the blocks
Power snatch from the floor
