Excellent range of motion, Jason.  Bar is pulled all the way to the throat, elbows stay high and outside.

This lift (snatch) intimidates me. I think it's because in order to go fairly heavy it requires 100% commitment and even though I've been working on the elements, I still don't feel confident in my ability to get under the bar.

Josh, I've seen you lift and I have confidence you can hit at least 135lbs if not a lot more.  Try these exercises to build your confidence getting underneath the bar.

Snatch Balance:  Work up to fairly heavy weights with this.  Think about it this way, if you can pull 135lbs, and you can snatch balance 135lbs, you should be able to snatch 135lbs.


1 Muscle Snatch + 1 Tall Snatch: Do this as a complex with relatively light weights.  Start with PVC/bare bar and build up slowly.  The link is to tall cleans but you should get the idea.  Start flat footed, violently shrug the shoulders and explode down into an overhead squat. 

Let me know if you have questions.
