The Snatch Pull, Checked in Nine Points
This is the one-page checklist that used to go out with the videos. Nine things that have to be true between the floor and the hip. Print it, stick it on the wall, or just read it before you warm up.
- Push through your full foot.
- Hips and chest rise at the same rate.
- Knees come back as you push through the floor.
- Knees move back so the shins are vertical.
- The knees move out of the way. You do not pull the bar around the knees.
- Only after the bar has passed the knees does the torso start to come upright.
- Shoulders stay over the bar, not behind it, until the bar is in the hip.
- Bar in the hip, shoulders over the bar, full foot on the ground.
- Ready to finish and catch.
Where each one goes wrong
Every point above has a fix video behind it. If one of them is the thing you keep getting wrong, start here:
Not buying today? Take the rest of this category.
Every fix I've filmed, one a day for five days, in the order I'd work through them with you. Not the order they got uploaded. The order that actually fixes it.
Plus the snatch pull checklist. One page, nine points, floor to hip.
Free, and these videos are free on this site whether you do this or not. This is just me putting them in the right order and sending them to you, so you don't have to guess where to start.
