How to do Power Snatch

  1. Use a wide grip and set your back with the bar over your midfoot.
  2. Drive through the floor and extend your hips while keeping the bar close.
  3. Pull under, catch with locked arms above parallel, then stand.
Where reps get stolen

Swinging the bar away from the body. A wide loop makes a balanced overhead catch unlikely.
