But unlike the snatch, when you push press or push jerk for reps, you lower the load back to your shoulders under control. So you're getting that load on your shoulders during the eccentric portion of the exercise.

I'm not picking sides though. I think you can create hypertrophy with both methods and more than a debate about which one works best, it makes more sense to ask which one the trainee wants to use, which one does he enjoy the most.
