Improving the Kettlebell Snatch Part 4: Pull punch to lock out

Kettlebells are a great way to learn how to relax and move with momentum. Weve all grown up being taught that we have to brace a lift, which isnt wrong but, kettlebells arent a max effort lift, they are a subloaded momentum based movement. We can observe the gen pop struggle with this in the stiff, straight arm they may have braced as the bell travels overhead. Downside to this is we now have a circular weight path going up and over the head. We want to teach a near vertical weight path, close to the body and punch upwards towards the sky. This will reduce the risk of people damaging their shoulder or lower back. , Kettlebells, MomentumBasedMovement, VerticalWeightPath, ReduceRiskOfInjury
