One-arm Kettlebell Snatch
Exercise Description
Place a kettlebell between your feet. Bend your knees and push your butt back to get in the proper starting position. Look straight ahead and swing the kettlebell back between your legs. Immediately reverse the direction and drive through with your hips. Pull the kettlebell towards your body as if you are starting a lawn mower. As the kettlebell rises to your shoulder open your hand and punch through straight overhead.
Performance Tips
• Breathe in as you take the weight overhead and breathe out as the kettlebell swings between your legs.
• Punch through at the top forcefully to lock out the kettlebell overhead.
• At the starting position, crush grip the kettlebell. As you raise it past your chest open you hand and get your hand around the kettlebell rather than letting the kettlebell flip over your hand and crush your forearm.
