High-Hang Snatch (Skillwork)
Drill #1 – Snatch Grip Sotts Press https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XiCtAGjE3Tk&width=640&height=480
5 Sets of 3 Repetitions
Start with a dowel or empty barbell, as this movement demands a considerable amount of mobility. Best to start very light. To bridge the gap between a dowel and an empty barbell, put the dowel through small plate (2.5, 5, or 10lbs). Positioning trumps loading here as this is about improving the bottom of our snatch/OHS.
Drill #2 – Hang Snatch High Pull https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9dWQ-Up9cyc&width=640&height=480
4 Sets of 3 Repetitions
Starting with the barbell at the hang position, we are looking for an aggressive drive followed by elbows high to the outsides. It is very common for the bar to swing out in front of us – keep it close with elbows high to the outside.
