Step-by-step
- Grip the bar from the floor with a wide (snatch) grip, feet hip-width apart, back flat and chest open.
- Keeping the bar close to your legs, pull it up to your knees under control.
- Explosively extend your hips and legs and rise onto your toes to give the bar a powerful drive.
- Quickly drop under the bar and catch it overhead with arms fully locked out in a single motion.
- Stabilize and stand up, then lower the bar under control.
Coaching tip
Use a wide grip and move the bar explosively overhead in one motion.
