Snatch Improvement

Two months can make a difference.

- Better 2nd pull. In my first snatches I had absolutely no 2nd pull.
- Better body position. Still could use work but my hips and back rise at a closer rate.
- Better arm lockout.

Better, but definitely not best. Time to put some weight on the bar!

actually, shit, I've just realized this is almost 3 years old...ah well, how is it now then?

[scientificallyunstab]

haha, I was going to say: "hey you train at st leonard's"

but I can see that people have been quick to ask you

nicely done, how long have you been training for? I only started in January and only doing 55k for now. Looking to increase so hopefully I'll be getting some good gains soon enough.

Do you get coached?

You are not fully extending at the top of the pull!
