The muscle snatch is a great exercise to aide in developing the rotational strength required in pulling under and then turning over during the 3rd pull phase of the snatch.

Added benefits for the beginner include training the 1st and 2nd pull under reduced loads to enhance motor control capabilities while still being able to produce a good stimulus in other areas of the lift.

Where are you looking when you’re setting up for your lift? Down, to the side, or maybe you just don’t know?

The eyes guide proprioception for the rest of the body. Look down and you’ll go down. Look up and suddenly your trunk is a little bit taller waiting to receive the bar overhead or on your shoulders.

Try this on for size the next time you lift: Perform one lift looking down 6ft in front of you. Then, try one lift looking at a fixed point a distance away above the horizon level. Which felt better?

Throwback Thursday (#tbt) It all started in parking lot. Under a canopy. By some dumpsters. And, we all looked a little younger.

Recovery on the snatch requires the athlete to maintain a rigid trunk as the legs work to elevate system.

Lack of adequate strength in trunk to secure the bar overhead can express itself as the lifter getting pinned in the hole, the trunk tilting off axis to the shoulders during recovery, and/or instability during recovery resulting in potential loss of the load (usually forward). #FuBarbell #weightlifting #crossfit #crossfitgirls #Oly #Olympic #Olympicweightlifting #usaw #snatch #clean #cleanandjerk #technique #inspiration #motivation #instagramfitness #fitspo #dianefu
