Need to watch how far back I have the bar when it is overhead. Get the bar over the ear in the frontal plane, not way back behind the shoulders. Felt pretty good on the snatch coming off the Olympic Weightlifting Certification.
-Grip should be the same as the overhead squat grip, put thumb underneath fingers
-Come out of deadlift position from the ground, bring bar over knees
-Violent shrug keeping arms locked out
-Open the hips, leaning back slightly
-Bring elbows out wide, get bar weightless
-Pull yourself underneath the bar dropping down into the squat position
-Bar stays in a straight line from the knees to overhead, tracing the chest
-Bar gets overhead, lock out arms, ACTIVE SHOULDERS
-Catch the bar overhead when getting down into the squat position, you will end up doing an overhead squat
-Stay on the heels in the squat, do not get on toes or bar will come down quickly once you add weight
-Get hips below the knee caps in the squat and pop out of the squat position driving through the heels
-Finish back standing up with knees locked out and bar overhead (ACTIVE SHOULDERS THE WHOLE TIME)
Got to stay on my heals.
Had to depart early for another committment. Got a lot of work to do on the technique.
need to work on the intensity of my shrug and on opening my hips.
Need to work on that shrug. Probably could have done 5-10 more lbs if we completed the 7.
difficult technique to date.
