3 Position Snatch
A great drill designed to reinforce hitting proper positions, increasing speed under the bar and strengthening your grip! Ideally this will be performed from the ground first, then the knee, then the hi-hang. An easier variation is to go in reverse order. Remember, priority with any snatch variation is making contact with the hip and a quality overhead position. Review our Snatch Teaching Progressions HERE.
