Crossfit Movement: The Dumbell Snatch

DUMBELL SNATCH TIPS AND WODS

EXERCISE
5 time series of: 10 Box Jumps, 12 Dumbbell Snatches (each side)

CONFIGURATION
Standing with your feet shoulder-width apart, bend your hips back to bring the dumbbell down below your knees.

PULL
Keep your back flat and extend your hips explosively to stand up straight; pull up with your arm and come up on your toes.

MOMENTUM
The initial pull should be explosive enough to create considerable momentum so that the weight rises to shoulder height.

FINISHING
Once the dumbbell reaches shoulder height, rotate your wrist down and 'hit' the weight up to finish.

Quick tip: Let the power come from your hips. Do not try to row to raise the weight.
