Kettlebell Snatch
1. Swing the kettlebell to start the move, then as it reaches eye level pull your elbow back and ‘punch’ your hand upwards to catch it at the top of the move- your arm only straightens at the very top. If you do it right, the bell shouldn’t bang into your forearm.
2. From the top of the move, flip the kettlebell over and progress smoothly into the next swing.
