I’ve not done a barbell snatch in months and never in my Vibrams Five Finger shoes, so I kept my weight light and my sets low. I was able to grip the bar closer than I’ve ever done before in the snatch and OHS position, thanks I believe, to the kettlebell shoulder work I’ve been doing. I used to grip all the way out at the end of the bar by the plate. Now I can use the “normal” groove mark about 10 inches inside the plate…. NEVER been able to do that before!!!! Woo Hoo!!!
The VFF’s feel pretty good for barbell lifts. I can tell without my weightlifting shoes that I still have ankle/shin flexibility issues to work on though.
