Here we have a weightlifting piece that isn’t for load. In fact, the heaving snatch balance often challenges athletes before the loading is even close to something they think will feel heavy, and that’s the point today! To practice this skill transfer exercise over a lot of PVC reps, empty barbell reps, and maybe moderately loaded reps so that you get more comfortable dropping under the bar quickly while still receiving it in an active shoulder position. This is for everyone. So, come in to The Hut, be humble, practice, practice more, and get better.
