Pulling underneath the bar requires coordination, mobility, speed… and lets face it, quite a bit of courage. A common misconception amongst beginners is the idea that a (squat) snatch or clean requires the athlete to hastily slam rock bottom into the hole.

While this strategy will work with the lower end weights, the challenge arises when it’s time to get after the big numbers. Slamming rock bottom takes away the ability for the system to load the legs well and removes quite a bit of the eccentric load going into the hole.
