My least favorite drill in weightlifting. When I hear a coach say that we will be snatching form the low hang my stomach churns and my back tightens. I fall forward, I don't stay over the bar long enough, I don't push enough back in the catch. What should be a fluid and powerful movement turns into an awkward shit storm of jerky hesitation.
I am not a strong weightlifter, I am not a fast weightlifter, but I will be the best weightlifter.
I will be using this blog to document my journey through the ranks of USAW and the AWF. I will try to provide multiple updates weekly on my training and how I am progressing. This blog is mostly for me, a way to track what I've done and how it impacts my lifts, but if you'd like to read along, feel free.
Now I'm gonna put my shoes on and go hit some reps from the low hang.
