Today I wanted to take a look at what I believe to be one of the most common errors in the weightlifting community when it comes to the snatch. I honestly think much of this stems from lack of posterior chain strength that keeps us in position over the bar and helps with downward pressure in the foot. Below is a video showing what happens when we aren’t able to be patient enough in the first pull and how that kills our upward bar velocity. Take a look:
