The snatch shrug builds explosive trap power and improves your Olympic lifting. It teaches you to shrug fast and hard at the top of a snatch pull.
1. Set up with a barbell using a wide snatch grip, arms straight and bar at hip level. 2. Start the snatch shrug by explosively driving your hips forward and extending onto your toes. 3. At the peak of hip extension, aggressively shrug your shoulders up toward your ears. 4. Keep the bar close to your body and pull it straight up in one smooth motion. 5. Lower the bar back to starting position and reset for the next snatch shrug rep.
• Keep your arms straight throughout the entire snatch shrug movement - no bending at the elbows. • Drive through your heels first, then explode onto your toes at the top. • Shrug your shoulders up and slightly back, not forward. • The snatch shrug should feel explosive - think fast and aggressive, not slow and controlled.
• Bending your arms too early instead of keeping them straight during the snatch shrug. • Shrugging before fully extending your hips, which kills the power transfer. • Using your arms to pull instead of letting the snatch shrug momentum carry the bar up.
