As you can see, James then drops under the weight as fast as possible, while punching up as he lands in a Squat.
The Dumbell Snatch is typically performed using just one arm .The use of single arm movements helps to build rotational strength in the core as you work to resist the twist of the body to one side.[/vc_column_text][us_separator show_line=”1″ line_width=”default”][vc_column_text]
