Understanding positions during the pull is key to being able to execute a consistent movement pattern during the lift. This consistency over time allows the body to find efficiency and develops a solid foundation to the continue building up and advancing the snatch and clean.
A game I like to play with my athletes is ‘Simon Says’. The goal being whether or not they can reproduce each position I want to see with mechanical precision and no hesitation. Spending an extra 5 minutes prior to lifting priming these points will pay dividends come time to load up the bar and go.
A little more fodder from the weekend. @klokovd, the artistic view. For those of you wondering, Dmitry uses this exercise as a form of bodybuilding to help with strengthening the shoulders.

One more for the night. Been talking shop with the Russians all night. Here’s a “secret” flu Remedy from Polovnikov that involves one part honey, 4 shakes of red pepper, vodka and wrapping yourself in a blanket all night.
