Hi, what do you mean commenting on the different techniques?


GS snatch is the technique with the most personal variations, but there are some common points.
Unless you have freaky grip strength that is. I have seen some impressive results by people that looked like they had no clue of what they were doing. Impressive is relative of course, because world class results are something else!

I think you should look at a top athlete of same weight as a starting point. the smoother your drop and relaxed you are when you swing, in general, the higher the results.

As for grip there are pros and cons for each, so it all depends on your strength and weaknesses, level of fatigue and so on. Experimentation is required.

I was wondering if there was some common reasoning behind different hand positions (in the bottom), different ways of taking it down, swing-style(relaxed tip-toe or very rigid).

For example why do some use a thumb downwards bottom grip? Why rigid and flat foot swing-style if a more relaxed way is energy preserving?

Absolutely,there are reasons why we do it one way or the other, or change half way through the set. Apart from fatigue, it depends on the athlete BW in relation to the KB weight, strength, feel, if muscle group are starting to wear out and so on.
I am doing a KB sport workshop on Sunday in Valby ;-)
