Strategies

The One | Teaching Focus

Double DB Snatch Stability

Today we are doing a double DB hang snatch.  Moving two DBs for this movement requires a lot of stability in our  midline, and also in our shoulders as we move overhead.  If athletes are having trouble maintaining safe stability as they go overhead for this movement encourage them to first to scale the load, and then scale  to one DB if needed.

Look For

  • Double Dumbbell Hang Snatch | Look for proper loading on the DBs today.  Athletes should be able to move unbroken, but while maintaining proper form. 
  • Double Under | Shoulders should remain relaxed throughout our doubles, and loose grip on the handles. 
  • Row | This row should only take a minute or less, have athletes target calories they can maintain in that time frame.
