  Probably the best video I&apos;ve seen for snatch technique, could you do one for cleans/C&amp;J?<br><br>When I catch it in the bottom I fold over, is my drop too aggressive or core not strong enough?

  I am now someone who has done CrossFit for years and still see newbies not learning the Weightlifting movements properly. Also some CrossFit coaches do not know how to assess the mobility and strength of a gym goer to execute the lifts which I wish was done for me. Learned through watching YT vids from you, Garage Strength, and Zack Telander.<br><br>The snatch is one of more complicated things to do in sport, and it pays to be patient and understand its not just speed and strength, but also getting strong in the positions we need to hit for a successful lift. Grear vid.

  Been snatching for 5months. &nbsp;It&apos;s a very slow process to get the foudation set. &nbsp;Mobility is key folks !!!! &nbsp; Took months just to get comfortable doing overhead squats past parallel and now i like it and look forward to it too. &nbsp; I can see why it takes years to get strong and good at this. &nbsp;The body SLOWLY adapts since you&apos;re placing loads in awkward positions. &nbsp;Starting to finally add weight and boy is it challenging. &nbsp;This was a very informaive and fantastic video! &nbsp;Your interview on the Mind Pump was also a super gem !! Thank you from Oahu .
