BREAKING DOWN MY SNATCH

[@SundeeDinner]

I'm relatively new to Crossfit (joined 2 weeks ago) and Your optimism in your videos have been dragging me out of bed @ 5:30 AM to make my Crossfit workouts before class and work. Thanks from Mississippi, USA and keep up he great content bro✊️!!

[@mithch123]

just started crossfit today and joined for a year thanks to you

[@TeamRICHEY]

Epic!! Just enjoy it bro :D

[@TeddyLomas]

Craig, stop getting frustrated - your progress so far has been immense so always remember that! I think you're a real natural for this sport - take training one day at a time, have fun and think of the long term. Great video as always - some really useful advice in regards to the Snatch so thank you!

[@kiddon12]

You & Jasmine are such an inspiration ! I started watching your videos only a week ago & the other day I did my very first CrossFit workout - 'Fran' - & did it in 10.17 ! Not great but I am now hooked on CrossFit thanks to you two !! Love the videos ! 💪🏼

[@jamesfrankis3473]

Loved the video rich, I love seeing your progression through the vlogs even a year on, keep up the good work

[@albyski1995]

You're amazing dude! Good luck for the open. I will support you from Italy!!!

[@DixonContractingMD]

Hey Rich! Thanks to you and a few others I have just joint the crossfit box in my city. I had been doing it for a few months at Golds gym but didn't want to join the box cause I figured I wouldn't do as well as Id like but watching your vlogs showed me that I could do it and to "just enjoy it" so thanks to you and everyone on the channel!

[@sk8erbrown1986]

That iron path app helped me out so much. Plus everything else in this video. Thank you

[@benmartinez8995]

Craig I do intervals on the bike all the time and I mentioned this when u first got ur air bike.. to keep urself in the workout the whole time u have to break it up... last time I got 198 and I broke it up by keeping the rpm's at 73-76 for 25seconds and then at 65-67for 35 seconds until the ninth minute then keep it above 70 the whole minute! And have someone there to push u.... first time I did it like u did I only got 161 then did it week later with my coach giving me intervals to follow for the 10 min and got 181 just 7 days later! Great video love ur channel the most

[@MegCharla]

Awesome video. I agree filming helps so much with improvement, my deadlifts have gotten so much smoother since I started analysing my footage!

[@frodeberg6027]

A really educating video man, awesome work!

[@jeaturner]

Great tips and really useful info in this one, like all the rest of the videos. I have the same oly lifting issues and this was really helpful. Keep up the good work and ...just enjoy it

[@fabandell]

We have a very similar music playlist! i love the way this video was structured

[@mollypayton_]

Loved this video!! New to both the KZbin and Crossfit world, but I've been watching your videos for a few weeks now. Finally got the courage to leave a comment (ah!) Thanks for all the inspiration 👊🏻🏋🏻‍♀️☺️

[@sewild3128]

I have the same problem with the Snatch. This video was extremely helpful!

[@PunkeeMunky]

Just subbed... you seem like the most genuine person.... love your energy!

[@RichardintheWorld]

Sunny was at my Box last sunday at CrossFit Connect in Hove. Epic lifter!

[@Nguroa]

31! It's like watch Zero Dark Thirty with this man...

[@gzmnsl]

Great video as always!

[@frenchfrytosweetpotatoe1437]

Your snatch is already very good ! I started crossfit in September and i'm still improving my move :p

[@MrJinga27]

workout done ✔...dog walked✔ Tea and team vid✔✔

[@Floppshot]

Great app that Iron Path Pro... thanks for the tip... tried it out for snatch, C&J, squat and DL..... brilliant. Oh and like for Jaz :)

[@Ghostca]

OMG the sheets of paper! its been so long. Doing snatch pulls would help clean up that issue with your chest not leading the 1st pull... My oly coach says pulls are like vegetables, if you want to get stronger you have to eat your veggies.

[@andrewsten1623]

the name of the app is "Iron Path"...hard to tell with the accent :D. looks like it's only for iphone...found an android app call BarSense which looks similar

[@ariknoph]

"Work hard, get sexy man" 😂😂😂😂😂

[@Runny95]

Really good informational video mate!! To what extent do you think Cindy ( Push-ups, and air squats) it's good for a person novice into Crossfit? LIKE4Jas&Craig. You guys ROCK!!!

[@mollymb1997]

That app and analysis was useful!!

[@rogerhart612]

Great video and training tips

[@BravoMx]

Tip 1: dont wear a lifting belt for snatches. Tip 2: focus your training on going down on the snatch and stablity (snatch balance and OH squats with snatch grip) Tip 3: ankle mobility is important so start using oly shoes. Tip 4: you dont have the same proportions as a chinese oly lifter...dont compare yourself to him. Tip 5: your butt is to low on your staring position (what sunny said) Tip 6: I cant tell from this angle but I think your feet are to close together and toes should be pointing away from each other not parallel. Tip 7: Hugg more puppies. Luck mate.

[@bodhi47]

Good info. Thanks for sharing

[@lucacodeluppi5412]

good snatch man! do you take any pre or post workout? i never see you taking any in your videos

[@Nguroa]

Wow, we have the same snatch ~ that is everything right and Wrong with mine. Power in the hip coupled with power in the pull through the shoulders/traps - harder than it looks.

[@ObesetoBeast]

I'll break down your snatch 😏😏

[@erniemorin21]

ObesetoBeast lmao!

[@JohnKonye]

smh...

[@mikekuppen6256]

:-o

[@theunknownpodcast7893]

[@narohato1749]

[@RawRacing66]

#thattitle 😂😂😂 Another awesome vlog bro

[@johnny_bichan]

Hey Craig what advice would you have for starting vlogging and what program do you use to get your music onto your videos coz I know spotify doesn't let you do it😒

[@Zimny913]

Can You give link to application which u are using to track way of barbell on phone ?

[@KuJoPlease]

Definitely gonna try that app!

[@jensmith7826]

If I could like this video more than once I would.

[@fabianavanderveen8237]

nice one craig....

[@tompomatico5092]

whens the road to the open series starting?

[@chris123chris82]

How does a beginner program Olympic weightlifting? How do I make a workout plan to improve in Olympic lifts :S

[@pavelzuravliov2248]

good tips

[@sauloortiz5990]

work hard get sexy hahaha. that should be a new saying in your vlogs!!

[@TheCostarikan]

you just keep jumping forward instead of jumping backwards, also you do the "pole dancing" movement lol in which your butt goes higher first instead of driving the bar towards your hips first

[@bachiedj]

You're snatching 100kg at what bodyweight? If you bring your head forward on the receiving position your traps will activate easier. Pull on the first pull with your legs not your back. Still. I can't manage that load so congrats.

[@JohnKonye]

10 min Max cal... NASTY!

[@JohnKonye]

Practice heavy from the hi hang :) or do a 20 min EMOM building to a heavy hi hang snatch.

[@JohnKonye]

Also, that dude is SOLID. That complex with the squat jerk at the end O_O... Butt down on that snatch is a BIG one that helps for sure!

[@kyleobrien9402]

When is Jas officially putting up a video? I know my girlfriend would love her channel, it's so hard to find crossfit girls for my girlfriend to follow on you tube.... do it Jas you'll be hitting a Niche market...there are plenty of women out there who'll be inspired by your positivity

[@xiaoming6317]

Whats the name of that App??

[@bazwhitebox155]

Iron path

[@MrSawborob]

Where is the open?

[@ellenomahoney4629]

Sonny trains at my gym ;)

[@Vicmendo11]

I give you 1 👍 for Jasmine 1👍 for awesome content 1👍 for #teamrichey 1👍 for not giving up .... why? because #wedontquit great job. in order for us to move forward and progress, we must work on our weaknesses and turn them into strengths. I aplod you for going the extra mile and really making a full effort to see where you need to improve and implement the necessary changes. Great Job, love you guys. @fit_vic_jr

[@quackieduckmuncher7132]

What's your Spotify

[@jlrbhj]

The Chinese lifter has very different anthropometrics than yours. Be cautious about comparing your lifting to 1) high-level lifters and 2) men with very different levers than yours. Elite national and international-class lifters have honed techniques over many years and thousands of reps and usually incorporate idiosyncrasies into their technique - a natural progression in technique over time. Stick to the basics, learn to squat and pull well and where the bar belongs overhead in the snatch and the jerk. Those alone will take time and lots of reps with good coaching. Good luck!!

[@AyEoKaY247]

I broke down your birds snatch while you were in the US mate

[@foolishlyfalling6902]

FIRST COMMENT, you're awasome dude

[@182Cayetano]

You should buy a pair of lifters

[@benmartinez8995]

Alex Patron he did the reebok legacys him and jas there just waiting for them

[@iamsam8446]

I don't want anything to do with your snatch.
