The Dumbbell Power Snatch

The dumbbell power snatch is less technical than its barbell counterpart but relies on many of the same principles. The hips and legs should generate the majority of the upward force and momentum on the dumbbell. The working arm should remain straight until the hips have extended. The overhead position demands balance and coordination to stabilize the dumbbell. However, receiving the load in the power position places fewer demands on overall flexibility. This movement lends itself to a fast cycle time, making it an excellent tool for developing fitness. ~ www.crossfit.com

The Push Press: In the push press, the muscles of the power zone — including the hip flexors, hip extensors (glutes and hams), spinal erectors, and quadriceps — assist the arms in driving the barbell overhead. With the push press, you will be able to move overhead as much as 30% more weight than with the shoulder press. Regular practice of the push press — and the push jerk — develops power and speed, which are critical to effective and efficient athletic movement.

The Kipping Pull-up

This “cheat” derives from a powerful and athletic reversal of hip direction — like that of the clean and the snatch — and expands the primary movers from just the back and arms down through the torso and hip to include the power zone. Far from being a cheat, kipping is a gateway skill with functional utility on the rings, parallel bars, high bar, and floor (the quickest way to get to your feet). Where most athletic communities avoid the kip, we go to great lengths to teach and learn it. ~ www.crossfit.com
