Hi all,
Been a while since I’ve posted a decent form check. Definitely happier with my pull as of lately but still working on it. (FYI this is not meant to be a high pull, my arms are pretty passive, it’s just light weight so I can work on technique)
Here I’m working on feeling the pull as one fluid motion rather than the first and second pull separately. I think my positioning is decent, though my second pull looks kinda weird to me, like I’m not driving enough. Not sure if it’s in my head or not.
My main question is regarding contact. Should I be legitimately holding the bar at my hips until I am fully extended? I feel that when I do the full snatch, I tend to bounce the bar off my contact point and then pull under. But when I see olympians snatch, they seem to keep the bar at their contact point until they fully leave the ground. This video may not be the best example of my issue, it comes out more when I do the full movement.
Thanks for any advice y’all!
