Personally not the biggest fan on loose arms. Tension in the arms is okay, as long as it’s controlled, and you’re not using it to pull into the contact position. Example: Lasha performs both lifts with a slight arm bend
How do I get my feet flat on the ground? As a beginner I tend to finish on my toes so not to fall back if I try to put my heels down at the same time. Thanks
The starting position was probably what threw her off. Hips down, shoulders back. Really easy to get thrown off from that when you start to pull. You just end up bouncing that hip contact and bar in the front because you're so behind the bar. And then jump forward trying to catch it. But maybe the lack of heel elevated lifting shoes was part of the equation making the position more difficult. She was so slow with it when she focused on the pull and hip contact with behind the bar position. The ideal would be shoulders above the bar so that you have nice relation to the bar and can keep the arms straight, and then you "just" so the turnover bending the arms and pushing yourself under the bar quickly, full depth. Here she was trying to catch in power snatch position, which probably implies that as the result of all those she was not only late but also chasing the bar and not being able to drop and push herself under the bar quickly. That's why you train with elevated heels, straight arms, and quick drops under. Basically if your elbows bend, your coach will scold you. Overpulling is such a common mistake. Start slow from the bottom and accelerate after knee, have relatively vertical bar path, keep the bar close to the body and only touch with the hip. Use hook grip. Look up Chinese team's snatches for a hint on how close the bar can be to your thighs (they sometimes pull their singlet with the bar on thighs). Hook grip further helps in that even if there's a strong contact with the hip, the bar won't escape as much. However as a learning tool no hook grip can work because you can't smash without the bar escaping forward. What she should probably do is 1. Have lifting shoes with elevated heel 2. Learn a better starting position (it's such an underrated thing to focus on, it's not a comfortable position but makes a difference) 3. Lower the weight to drill the new technique in and be able to drop fast 4. Do muscle snatches and other hip contact drills. Although just doing the first three might already render the fourth step useless due to not smashing the hips and chasing the bar. But the hip contact is just a touch, muscle snatches teach you the vertical bar path and extension, which then translates to subtle hip contact. The bar meets the hip, not the other way around. You basically just stand up and pull the bar up close to your body, touching the hip.
Her CONTACT looks super WEAK super LOW and she is shifting he weight in her feet. Going toe, heel back to mid foot then extension. You want full pressure entire time if not TOE favoured these and deadlifts from the floor.
@@articfreeze_1252dawg this is literally my single biggest barrier in oly lifting right now. It’s hard to train with full agression when the workout can turn into a cock and ball torture session in the blink of an eye
@@articfreeze_1252 In the snatch, your contact point should not be so low, check your grip length. The problem will reduce by lengthening the grip. If it still persists, try shrugging just before contacting it in the power position to pull the bar even higher above the nuts.

Wider stance, i had the same issue, it got fixed when i took a wider stance
Likely your dorsiflexion needs work.

Classic problem, use Weightlifting shoes. Or just keep a pair of small plates under your heels.
Use your head as your counter weight, you need some flexibility for this.

Will be practicing these tips
Don't forget to hook grip.
That's why my old program had muscle snatch said to pause at the mid waist!!!😮😮😮😮 My form was great until I tried to program it myself😹
Hampton's retreat into the receiving position is lightning quick
My back hurt from watching this
This is the exact method we followed few years back in the university
Genius thanks 😊
Can you explain the benefits of snatching ?
You can lift the weight.
Increases explosive strength. You can't perform snatch if you are not explosive.
More halterofilia more weightlifting moves!🙏
That looked like a power snatch
Thx Merry Christmas

Even her setup is bad, shoulders need to be more over the bar.
@@radjifmaduro3661 indeed, will for sure eliminate the dreaded rocking chair foot
it looks like you train swimmers
Thanks man, now can you break down the other 90% of the technique lol
LoL who needs shoulders
Thanks
I can't snatch at all. Not even the bar 😒
Who was in the first video?
Bro how do I do this without scooping my nuts with the bar
My contact point is at the middle of my thighs

😁🏅
I don’t understand why the hell people do this. I guess I never will.
To become stronger?
Well why do people do deadlifts if it's so easy to get injured?
Dnt sey slew ash 😂
