Kristin Newman post shoulder surgery PR at 178lbs/81kg snatch and 228lbs/114kg clean&jerk.

A noteworthy mention is that we changed Kristin’s technique on her snatch 7 weeks ago and have since put 26lbs/12kg on the bar. She was stuck at 152lbs/69kg for a while because the way she was pulling caused her shoulders pain every 1 out of 5 lifts. We made this change to give her more confidence in pulling under to her receiving position which now she lifts pain free in all her snatches.

When strong friends come to play. Mark Bell from SuperTraining.TV on the ~5” deficit with 475lbs. Then, me setting up and not budging the weight so I go back to my snatches.

A common fault amongst many beginners is using their backs to lift the bar into their hips during the 1st pull. This brings the back into play too soon and diminishes it’s helpfulness in the finish of the 2nd pull. Instead, focus should be on the legs pushing the platform away to elevate the barbell preserving the use of the back for the explosive final extension.

A few line of thoughts to help maintain this movement sequence are:

1. Stay covered over the bar.

2. Keep the sternum over the bar as long as possible.

3. Chest up; push the floor away.

Comparison of 4 power positions. The frames were captured right before the athletes started extending towards the finish at the top of their pull.

For the inevitable question of which is ideal? It will vary from coach to coach and athlete to athlete. Some will want to see varying degrees of shoulders over the bar to shoulders behind the bar along with the weight distribution biasing the front heel edge or going towards the base of the toes.
