Download or read book Snatch Physics written by Taco Fleur and published by Taco Fleur. This book was released on 2018-11-01 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The snatch is a full body exercise that delivers amazing effects. The snatch can be used to increase cardiovascular endurance, muscular endurance, strength, flexibility, core stability, explosive power, and much more. The snatch truly works each and every major joint in the body, ankles, knees, hips, shoulders, elbow, and wrists. For strength, you can't deny the major areas that will improve, such as, latissimus dorsi, deltoid, triceps, erector spinae, abdominals, glute, hamstrings, calves, hip flexors, quadriceps, lumbrical muscles, and many more. All these properties make it the king of kettlebell exercises, an exercise everyone should include in his or her training. Mastering the snatch takes time, as someone who has completed 532 unbroken snatches in 30 minutes, working with kettlebells for over a decade, and trained thousands of people across the world, I'm able to break down the snatch step-by-step in such a way that you can go from zero to comfortably snatching at the end of the 21 days. The snatch is an exercise in which a weight is lifted in one continuous motion from start to overhead with an explosive movement in which the weight arrives at the top through velocity generated at the start till approximately middle of the full movement. Includes many photos of the exercises and drills broken down step-by-step. Bonus links to videos which demo the full movement and drills. This book is not just for those wanting to learn how to snatch but also for those wanting to know the snatch exercise inside out. SNATCHING IS FOR OLDER PEOPLE As I get older (currently 45) I truly believe that the snatch is an exercise that older people should be doing to remain explosive and have one go to exercise to work the whole body. I've recently taught a 60-year-old how to snatch and I see how his posture and movement changed from day one.

Download or read book Kettlebell Swing and Snatch Efficiency in CrossFit written by Taco Fleur and published by Cavemantraining. This book was released on with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First things first, this book contains information on how to run a workshop in your CrossFit box or any other gym that wants to help their students improve their efficiency with the American Swing and Kettlebell Snatches. It is assumed you will have a foundation or knowledge of both exercises prior to running this workshop. Having said that, the book does include a format which could teach yourself, it also has plenty of external links to high-quality articles and videos to understand what is explained in the workshop format. The primary aim of this workshop is to improve efficiency in American Swings and Kettlebell Snatches. This goal is achieved by building the movement up from hip hinging, to conventional swing, swing variations, snatch and snatch variations; and most importantly, making participants understand how these variations affect performance and muscles. Most of this material is written as if directly speaking to the audience, this allows you to read and speak directly from the material, rather than first reading, deciphering and deciding how to present it to the audience. I've run this workshop several times and left some of the parts in that apply to me, you should edit those parts out. Can be used as a 4-hour workshop or for self-study: the primary aim is to improve efficiency with the American Swing and Kettlebell Snatches. This goal is achieved by building the movement up from Hip Hinging to the Conventional Kettlebell Swing AKA Russian Swing, covering swing and snatch variations, and finally getting across these variations affect performance and muscles so the right choices can be made at the right time.

Download or read book Secrets of the Squat Snatch written by Peter George and published by Gatekeeper Press. This book was released on 2018-03-19 with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why learn the secrets of the squat snatch? The answer is obvious if you’re an Olympic-style weightlifting competitor—or a coach, fan or history buff of this sport. It’s the most authoritatively endorsed book ever written on this lift. But did you know that the squat snatch is not only the best single test of strength, speed and coordination. It’s also the single best exercise to develop these empowering attributes. According to Dr. Allison Brager who is a neuroscientist, as well as a competitive CrossFit athlete and author of Meathead: Unraveling the Athletic Brain: The Secrets of the Squat Snatch is the complete tool kit for athletes and their coaches who strive to elegantly channel—while enhancing—their explosive neuro-muscular power through this standard Olympic lift. You can, and ideally should do a lot of other exercises, but the one you’ll get the most benefit from for time spent is the squat snatch. This book, therefore, is a must read if you’re a CrossFit trainee,An athlete who wants to excel in another active sport,Anyone who wants to enhance his or her explosive neuro-muscular power for any good and just purpose. I’m Dr. Peter T George. My weightlifting buddies know me as Pete George—that’s the name I’m listed as in the Olympic record books. I was blessed to have been coached by Larry Barnholth. He was the legendary coach who figured out how the squat snatch should be performed to achieve maximum poundage with stability. He then produced champions who broke records in the snatch with the squat style when most of the world’s lifters were using the split style. In 1950 when Larry was besieged with enquires for his “secrets” to mastering this lift, I helped him write and publish the first edition of this book. TOMMY KONO AND DAVE SHEPPARD were the first two purchasers of the Secrets of the Squat Snatch. After reading it, both went on to beat official world records on this lift. In fact, Tommy was declared by the International Weightlifting Federation to have been the greatest weightlifter of the twentieth Century. How much credit should this hip pocket manual get for their worldwide successes? No one can say for sure, but Dave personally told me that it was very helpful to him in perfecting his nearly flawless style. Tommy had very carefully and neatly marked up the ideas he wanted to remember in his copy to the extent that the Stark Center for Physical Culture and Sports at the University of Texas obtained his original copy to preserve in their archives. I hope they’ll display it or a copy in the room they have dedicated to him in their museum. Tommy’s phenomenal success as a weightlifter is even more impressive when you consider he never had a personal coach, although he obtained as much information as he could acquire from Larry Barnholth in their several meetings and through their postal correspondence. Tommy was my close personal friend for over 60 years. He stayed active on the world weightlifting scene—officiating, coaching and writing—until very near his death in 2016. He kept urging me to republish this book. He claimed there was none simpler for a beginner to quickly learn the squat snatch nor one more authoritative for the experienced lifer to perfect his or her style. I’m sorry I did not publish it sooner, but it is for the above reasons that I have dedicated this Vintage Edition of the Secrets of the Squat Snatch to my dear friend and Olympic teammate Tommy Kono.

Download or read book The Snatch Racket written by Carolyn Cox and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2021-03 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the 1932 kidnapping of aviator Charles Lindbergh’s baby was a worldwide sensation, it was only one of an estimated three thousand ransom kidnappings that occurred in the United States that year. The epidemic hit America during the Great Depression and the last days of Prohibition as criminal gangs turned kidnapping into the highly lucrative “snatch racket.” Wealthy families and celebrities purchased kidnap insurance, hired armed chauffeurs and bodyguards, and carried loaded handguns. Some sent their children to school or summer camp in Europe to get them out of harm’s way. “Recent Kidnappings in America” was a regular feature in the New York Times, while Time magazine included kidnappings in its weekly list of notable births, deaths, and other milestones. The Snatch Racket is the story of a crime epidemic that so frightened families that it undermined confidence in law enforcement and government in general. In response, President Franklin D. Roosevelt waged a three-year War against Kidnappers with J. Edgar Hoover and his G-men (newly empowered to carry weapons and make arrests) on the front lines. This first U.S. war against terrorism revolutionized and modernized law enforcement in the United States, dramatically expanding the powers of the federal government in the fight against not only kidnapping but many new types of interstate crime. At the heart of the narrative are some of the most iconic names of the twentieth century: Rockefeller, Ford, Lindbergh, Roosevelt, Hoover, Capone, Schwarzkopf, and Hearst, all caught up in the kidnapping frenzy. The Snatch Racket is a spellbinding account of terrifying abductions of prominent citizens, gangsters invading homes with machine guns, the struggles of law enforcement, and the courage of families doing whatever it took to bring home the ransomed.
