Tonight’s skills practice at the Cincinnati Weightlifting Club continued to work on the Snatch. My shoulders were tight after some of the ring pushups and pullups that I squeezed in yesterday, but they eventually loosened up.
I am one session ahead of Penny, so while she focused more on stuff I did last session, I spent most of the time on overhead squats and hang/shrug snatches. A couple of things I was working on: keeping my feet from going too wide when I “jumped” into the Snatch squat; keeping the pull/shrug flat up my chest then “snapping” my wrist and pulling myself under the bar.
Gotta keep working the timing and balance, all the while, keeping my shoulder blades pulled back and stretching the bar lengthwise.
