Is it socially acceptable to write, “breeding material”?
Watch Sage Burgener perform the Snatch Balance wmv/mov. This is what is called a skill transfer exercise for learning a full squat snatch. The snatch requires speed, coordination, strength, and flexibility to name a few. If you are missing any of these components, you will struggle with a proper snatch. In order to address these limiting factors, we can break the movement down and focus on your weaknesses.
Check out a couple other skill transfer and strenghtening exercises in this clip with Dutch and Coach Burgener wmv/mov.
