Power Snatch benefits Why do Power Snatch I Why do Power Snatches I Why should you do Power Snatches

Learn from Olympic coaches & work with elite athletes: https://www.skool.com/strength-condit... Why should you do Power Snatches, if doing Power Cleans is much easier? However, if you compare the Power Snatch and the Power Clean, the Power Snatch offers unique benefits. This Power Snatch tutorial discusses Why should you do Power Snatches The unique benefits of a Power Snatch Power Snatch benefits that not a lot of people know about, that will help you with your sports performance Why should you do Power Snatches? The Power Snatch is a more explosive lift than the Power Clean. You have to explosively accelerate your body and the barbell. If you look at the Force-Velocity Curve, the Power Snatch is more of a power-speed lift and the Power Clean is more of a power strength lift. As an interesting fact, biomechanical analyses have shown, that the highest weight categories of Olympic Weightlifters also show the highest bar velocities during the Snatch, as well as the Power Snatch. Consequently, if you are looking to improve your performance in a sport where power and explosiveness is required, the Power Snatch benefits are a higher power production. Power Snatch benefit Triple Extension and Triple Flexion The Power Snatch movement involves a powerful triple extension, which requires high force and power production, but also a so-called triple flexion when you are catching the bar and need to decelerate and absorb the forces. Why is a triple extension and triple flexion important? Let's take a look at examples if you are jumping you produce force for the upward movement, the moment you are landing you need to be able to absorb these forces. The quicker you can absorb these forces, the quicker you are ready for the next action. The same is true for sprinting and changing direction when sprinting, you need to produce forces and before you can change directions you have to decelerate and absorb the forces before you can accelerate again. The Power Snatch benefits any sport where sprinting, jumping, hitting, throwing or changing direction is required. Power Snatch benefits the Nervous System The Power Snatch offers a few benefits for the nervous system, such as a higher recruitment of muscle fibers, a higher firing frequency and a better synchronization of muscle fibers. Can the Power Snatch benefit the Metabolic System? The Power Snatch can be used for metabolic conditioning, if you want to target a different energy system, such as the ATP-CP system, or the anaerobic lactic system, where you need to do higher repetitions with lesser intensities. However, you need to have a high technical proficiency in the policy in order to do that, as the technique breaks down pretty quickly the more repetitions you do. Unique Power Snatch benefit not a lot of people know about If you look at the psychological aspect, the Power Snatch offers a benefit, not a lot of people know about. There are two psychological activations, and I could only find the name in the German scientific literature so far, that is called Willensspannkraft, that describes the voluntary intent of how long you can do a certain activity. And Willensstosskraft, that describes how fast you can activate this intent The Power Snatch requires you to have a high commitment to the lift, in order to execute it properly. It’s a go or go home movement. A few more Power Snatch benefits in a random order: the Power Snatch develops a strong shoulder girdle the Power Snatch builds a strong core, especially vertical core stability the Power Snatch trains kinaesthetic awareness, balance, and proprioception the Power Snatch activates the posterior chain and will help you to get into a more upright posture Subscribe here: https://goo.gl/XDRPqb Follow me Facebook page https://goo.gl/68hxda Google + page https://goo.gl/czzuKw Instagram https://goo.gl/3pNe7f Twitter https://goo.gl/yZnXMU LinkedIn https://goo.gl/cmb054
