    I'm mostly looking for a video of one

    Home movie or professional instructions? Solo workout or group setting?
  • Why did I know the responses would be as they were? :bigsmile:

    I would not advise doing the snatch for beginning lifters (or at all for that matter). The clean and jerk is safer as a compound movement and does just as much for the body.

    Always clean the snatch. Much safer that way....

    what about a clean snatch?

    And do you really need a snatch if you're just going to jerk?

    Snatch means to grab something. Like you snatched it from the shelf. It's a verb.
    Like "Albert snatched syphllis from a snatch."

    They're difficult to master.
    Once mastered, you'll be the envy of many.

    With the right equipment, it's much easier

    A familiarity with the snatch aids your jerk progress, in my experience .

    "Snatch" is a pie I LOVE to eat. I had some on thanksgiving. I had some last night. Mmmmmmm it's nutritious AND delicious. And it's calorie free!

    I can't stop laughing at some of these comments and the pics are priceless. My coworkers are giving me evil stares. If they only knew.....

    The snatch is one of the two olympic weightlifting events (the other being the clean and jerk)
    Are you by chance a rocky horror fan? Maybe I just always have that mind set but this made me giggle!
