Description

How to do Dumbbell Snatch:

 

- Using an overhand grip, grab a dumbbell in one hand and stand with the feet slightly wider than shoulder-width apart.

- Descend your hips to the floor until your knees are bent at 90-degrees and the dumbbell is resting on the floor.

- Quickly pull the dumbbell toward the ceiling while simultaneously extending your knees and hips and raising your body on the balls of your feet.

- Keep the dumbbell close to your body.

- As the dumbbell reaches its highest point, quickly rotate your elbow under the weight and extend your arm.

- The dumbbell will rest over the top of your shoulder with the palm facing away from your body.
