Beautiful first pull by Natalie in this photo. When we do Snatch Grip DL we are essentially practicing the first pull of the snatch. Remember the first pull is a positioning pull; an attempt to move the bar efficiently to a strong position for the second pull- jump, violently extend the hips, and accelerating the bar as fast as possible.

Notice

  • Flat back/Good lumbar curve
  • Vertical shins
  • Tall chest/doing everything she can to raise the shoulder and hips together
  • Hook grip
  • Straight arms/arms are like ropes/when the arms bend the power ends
  • Shoulders slightly in front of the bar
  • Bar in contact or very close to the shins/pulling the bar into her body
  • And the Best for Last – Intensity and Aggressiveness/you can’t do the Oly Lifts with a timid heart
