The Snatch

December 5th, 2010 | Posted by CrossMMAFitter in Olympic Weight Lifting Techniques

In the clean you use a grip a little bit wider than your shoulders. In the snatch you take a nice wide grip because you have to catch it straight overhead. It’s the same start position though: bum low, back flat. Keep your soulders over the bar. Pull as hard as you can untill you are up on your toes. Then you just catch it in an overhead squat and stand up.
