Kettlebell Snatch
In one hip-driven motion swing the bell from between the legs and punch it through to a straight-arm lockout overhead.
How to do it
Setup
Bell between the feet, hinge, flat back, one-hand grip.
Steps
- Hike and drive the hips hard.
- Guide the bell close and PUNCH the hand through at the top.
- Lock out overhead; lower in one smooth arc or two stages.
Common mistakes
Late punch: the bell flips and slaps the forearm; punch THROUGH before it lands. Wide arc: close to the body, always. Grip crushing the handle: loose in the swing, firm at the top.
Breathing
Inhale on the hike, sharp exhale at the lockout.
