Snatch Session - Thursday
Pack a lunch and join us Thursday from 1130-1300...be warmed up and ready to go. Mark and others will be running a clinic on the Snatch. Here's a prime opportunity to understand the fundamentals of the lift and give yourself a solid foundation for continued development. There are few of us that will not benefit from attending -- make the most of it!
Tentative plan is to go over Key Points of Performance for trainers to cue and then analyze each other under the watchful eye of some of IMCF's immense Oly lifting resources.
This is open to anyone wanting learn how to cue/teach the basics of it, and also for newbies. It's amazing how much you learn just as a fly on the wall seeing interaction and discussions from the coaching/trainers.
I know some of our big lifters with beautiful technique will be there so you can see how it should look in person as well as plenty of us that will give much ammunition for corrections...
