I have about 10 athletes going through Rob Shaul's BIG 24 strength cycle. This shit is no joke and it works. He claims that it is his greatest accomplishment as a strength coach. It's 3 total body lifts - all 8x3's with set loading. It's amazing watching my athletes get stronger and more proficient at the lifts. I am already having to bump some up faster then the prescribed loading suggests due to such a drastic improvement in form.
They are learning that it's not only a strength issue but a technique one as well. Olympic style lifting is very "martial art" like. Once you learn the movements and how to do them efficiently you will be able to move way heavier loads.
Below is a video that shows just how much technique comes into play in these lifts.
