“The snatch is simply lifting a barbell from the floor to overhead in one quick motion. However, this basic description barely begins to explain the complexity of the lift. The snatch requires a combination of strength, coordination, explo- siveness, mobility and stability not seen in any other exercise.” Exert from my article THE FULL SNATCH in @CrossFit Journal
.
In the above image @whiteboard_daily shows the six phases of the snatch which I describe in detail in the article!

Standard PT exercises are well pretty boring and don’t translate enough to the activities you really want to do. But small changes to how you perform them can make them more effective and fun.
.
Take the standard Y Raise performed in clinics everywhere. What you really care about if snatching without pain. So let’s do the Y Raise in a squat to better replicate the movements you want to be back to!

Oh and these

Using leg drive in the bench press can help both with stability and increase total weight/reps lifting when implemented correctly. By @bros_md
—
A common mistake is to drive the feet down and push the hips up. This commonly leads to the hips/glutes coming up off of bench, which is bad for at least two reasons:
—
For one, it looks silly and won’t count in a powerlifting meet. And for two, allowing the butt to come off the bench while arching can actually make a safe position (in general arching in the bench press of SAFE) by putting undue stress on the SI joint.
—
To fix this, try to think about the driving the feet down and OUT. The motion is similar to that of a leg extension, except the toes should be planted firmly and not actually allow for any leg extension. Another common way to think about it is to “try to slide the bench (or yourself) backwards.”
—
While doing this, it’s also important to have the shoulders tightly planted in to the bench (probably with at least some resemblance of an arch) in order to keep from actually sliding off of the back of the bench.
—
Additionally, some folks like Eric Spoto have talked about not going from 0-100 leg drive. Meaning don’t go from zero leg drive on the way down with the bar to sudden maximal leg drive when you start to press.
—
He, and others, have advocated for a type of “progressive leg drive” where the amount of leg drive slowly increases while lowering the bar and then reaches a maximum when the press begins. This is also a great way to maintain “full body tension” through the lift and help prevent the butt from coming up.
