The Kettlebell Snatch is an advanced skill that takes time to master. Make sure to learn and perfect the 1Hand swing before moving on to the snatch. The drive with both the swing and snatch comes from the hip hinge and then the arms guides to the finish. The swing finishes at the float about chest height, where the snatch stays closer to the body and flows to the high pull position and this is ...

§ 8. Respect for flag (b) The flag should never touch anything beneath it, such as the ground, the floor, water, or merchandise. (d) The flag should never be used as wearing apparel, bedding, or drapery. It should never be festooned, drawn back, nor up, in folds, but always allowed to fall free. So disrespectful for those who have served and died for it. Better to be a flag burner, at least they're doing it on purpose and not ignorance or callous disregard
Karen, why there is no hollow body position here? Is that not necessary?
Very good tutorial video!!! Thank you 🙏🏽
Karen, Is pistol squat exercise or test of strength? I ask because I dont know how many pistol sqats we should do? :) Thanks in advance.
I loved the warmup and progressions, I will definitely be doing them! Thanks for the instructions!
For a so called professional KB coach this video is too long winded .
Bought this for my youngest to develop basic form for single hand kettlebell work. ruclips.net/user/postUgkxtaDAl93XF8wxJhssTtjIFjzid82wglva It has a nice grip on it, just a little rough so it isn't slippery. I was doing a few rotator cuff exercises to test and worked well for those movements I'd been doing with a regular dumbbell. Cool thing you can do is hold it in your hand for door-knob turns to work the forearm and grip. Note: it's small, almost all handle, but that's what I expected given the weight. Smallest I've worked with before is 15lbs, so it was kind of funny to see the difference 10lbs makes.
You give the clearest KB instruction on RUclips. Much gratitude for helping my wife and I to iron out the kinks!
The demo is loyal 👍🏾💪🏾👏🏾
Great tutorial! Thank you.
why the vulcan hand sign while doing the plank sway?
Cant hear.
Are flip flops the official training footwear for Strongfirst??😂😂😂
Which one is harder?
I’m constantly watching videos on kettle bells trying to get better. Your videos are short and concise and teach more in four minutes then some half hour to 45 minute videos teach they talk about a lot of nothing that has nothing to do with what we’re doing and waste my time you’re efficient you’re an excellent teacher, and there’s some of the best videos I’ve seen on kettle bells. Thank you so much.
Just did this on my own - great stuff! So easy to neglect stuff like this day to day and prioritize “hard work” but I feel MUCH better and loose after doing it. Thanks Karen!
She's back! great stuff, the only thing missing is that big ol' 'Merican flag in the background. Would you consider making a video on sledgehammer work? odd question but the only videos on it I can find are from juiced up gym bros, I need a StrongFirst take on it.
Hi Thank you - Yeah been a minute. So many social media avenues that I sometimes forget about uploading until I get a request that is needing to be longer than IG reels. The flag is still there just inside today due to the cold snow storm we got in Dallas. As for Sledgehammer, I personally do not have one. However, I will see what I can do because I just started doing some volunteer work at a Adaptive Athlete facility and they do have sledgehammers. I will keep you posted.
@@Coachkarensmith Snowstorm in Dallas? I thought Texas was like Australia, like it gets cold but never snowy. Anyway, that'd be great, thanks Coach!
Hello Karen.
))))))))))))))))
LOL I went to 'like' it but I already liked it months ago, past me has great taste! I'd love more circuit videos, Coach! Keep crushing it!
Good tutorial , thanks for posting
This is the best tutorial of kettlebell snatches I have seen. All the other tutorials are too fast and you don't see the movement. Thank you Karen
Hi Karen- Why did you stop posting videos? Hope all is well!
Honestly, I need to get back to them. :) thanks for the encouragement. Got but posting to IG and kinda forgot about uploading to RUclips :) I’ll see what I can get back to soon. thanks again for checking on me<3
Wow thanks for the reply! Looking forward to it! Cheers!
Are you keeping your lats engaged with the lifter's wedge throughout the swing or only when you hike?
Failed that by a mile 😂. I guess I got some work ahead of me!
I still can’t get it right lol. Having a hard time keeping my lats loaded and down.
You can send me a video of your swings to my email and I’ll have a look. Karensmithmsfg@gmail.com
Hit the nail right on the head! Great video! I was looking for a better way to explain and teach this exercise. I’m planning on watching more of your videos! Thanks!
Thank you. Glad you found it helpful. If you need any specific skills, feel free to email me. Karensmithmsfg@gmail.com I need to get back to posting. Also have lots on my Instagram @_coach_karen_
This video is fantastic. I had run across this video ruclips.net/video/SlDufv_KlJQ/видео.html and was glad to see you explaining this "punch" drill because I haven't found that anywhere else.
The best snatch tutorial! I'm gonna close all the other snatch tabs I opened and focus on these drills.
Smartest tutorial I've seen on the swing.
Thank you so much.
Nicely demonstrated!👍
Your video answered some of my questions, thanks!
Like buttah
Such a good tutorial!!!!
Just a quick advise for the future. Befor you starting to explain a move you should do a few reps at the beginning. So the Viewer would have seen a corect execution of the move and can afterwards listen to you explanation of the move. Thats how we always thought our recruits in the military new stuff and this is a good method. But almost no youtuber do this that way.
A most exellent tutorial about kettlebell snatches! 🙏
Damn it's no day off for me with a dumbbell but then I've never been the all around athlete like the lady making it look as easy as riding a bomb proof pasture horse. HOOK EM coach I'll keep watching or studying these shows and being the opas dei clown
Damn about 40 years and pounds ago in college gymnastics was one of the few classes I actually paid attention and even playing rodeo in my 40s I could at least walk around on my hands and pick my fat ass and sprint to the safety of a gate or fence he half way awake
Not just for girls or the commie fascist and islamist Usurping women sports but also old guys like me are learning and improving with your help
Wow! Excellent breakdown of how to get to a pull up! Thank you!
Coach Karen, your videos are amazing. Seriously nothing in RUclips come even close to usefulness you provide. Watching your videos are like taking 1'st class PT.
Thank you so much for your kind msg. So glad you enjoy them and find them helpful!
Did I miss something? didnt she say she was going to tell us why it was a lifesaver? Is it because people will fall over at some point in their life and knowing how to get up is useful?
If people train to get off the ground with heavier loads then as we age we have less chance of falling and not being able to get up. I train all ages and it is helpful for elderly to be able to get up and at a minimum be able to crawl to a phone if they need help. It is a skill that we should all practice and be really strong at for life. What if something falls on you and you need extra strength to push it off you and get up. So yes I think it can be a lifesaver in some instances.
@@Coachkarensmith yeah, I agree. Ive heard Rory Miller say the same thing for learning Judo break-falls. Im going to practice both and be the king of the retirement village.
@@Coachkarensmith also may I ask do you think doing 5 turkish get ups each day would be too much for the shoulder?
@@pepperpeterpiperpickled9805 honestly it really depends on the health of your shoulders, your mobility/Stability and the weight you are using. But for most 5 would be fine to do daily. If you have restrictions in mobility for overhead lockout then just do partials up to the seated or 1/2 kneeling position and then back down.
Oh my God...You have to learn the rack position at the first..
Thank you for great tutorial , love that smile at the end .
Thanks

Hi Karen, nice channel. Do you have a suggestion for my weakest link in the TGU, the change from 1knee stand into full stand? Maybe some extra exercises or just greasing the groove with this partial movement? Thanks in advance
Send me a video to my email and I’ll assess it. It will depend on what is causing the issue. Karensmithmsfg@gmail.com
I have no idea if you read the comments here, especially since it's almost six years since you've posted this, but you are a fantastic instructor. Thanks.
Thank you so much- this means so much. I’ve been slacking on uploading.. guess I should get back to it.
