Kettlebell Crash Course: Episode 7

“Namaste Snatching”

One worry I constantly hear from people performing kettlebell snatches is…

…I don’t want to hurt my back!

Now, before we go any further. I must say that you need to be able to confidently perform a single arm swing, clean & press, and single arm high pull before successfully doing a kettlebell snatch.

That being said, let’s fix your kettlebell snatch and make sure you don’t hurt yourself.

So, here’s a quick rule of thumb when performing snatches “Closer to the body = safer”!

Too many times I see people snatch their bell up with a straight arm, bell smashes their wrist, then they cast that bell back down with that same straight arm then repeat 100 more times before saying…

“Damnit AJ I told you I was going to hurt my back”

Then I respond: “Well Dumby…did you watch the above video..?!”

Within the video you’ll see a drill I picked up from SFG brother The Red Gorilla Coach Cambio.

What it is, is performing snatches in front of a yoga mat that is dropped over a pull-up bar.

The goal is to perform snatches as close to the yoga mat as possible without touching it. While, of course, maintaining solid technique.

This simple yet effective drill can also be done for kettlebell cleans as well.

So what are you waiting for?! Check out the video above and let’s fix that snatch!

(Side note. The biggest question I hear with snatches is: how do I keep the bell from smashing my wrist? Welp…your welcome because this drill + a looser grip will help to fix that as well!)

See y’all in the next vid!
