Dec 17, 2018
Snatch Progression *Grip and Hand Placement* - Use a Hook Grip (Thumb under fingers) and your hands should outside the ring on the bar(bar should be at the waist when standing straight up) 1. Do an RDL into Power Position 1 (MEANS LOWER THE BAR TO ABOVE THE KNEE WHILE KEEPING SHINS VERTICAL). Keep Your Back Straight or Slightly Arched. Keep your eyes fixed on something about 30 degrees down. 2. Explode the bar up using your hips! Fast and Violent Hip movement (Don't swing your shoulders back). 3. Keep the arms loose and allow the bar to rise on its own. The bar should be able to get to Chest Height without using all of your arm strength. Your Elbows should stay high (if they are turnt backward, you are using too much arms). **Key Points** -Keep the Bar Close to your body! The bar can brush off the top of your thigh when you explode the bar up as long as you keep it CLOSE! -If you hit your hip bone, you are pulling the bar with your arms or swinging with your back (No-No).
