ERROR. TOO DEEP GRIP OF THE WEIGHT ARM WITH THE BRUSH.
This leads to excessive tension and rapid fatigue of the flexor muscles of the fingers. Calluses are quickly rubbed.

Reasons for the error:

1. Weak flexor muscles of the fingers.

2. Slippery shackle.

Correction.

For the development of the flexor muscles of the fingers, the following exercises are recommended:

1. Exercise with a carpal expander.

2. Holding the bar (weight) in the hang.

3. Swinging a heavy kettlebell with different amplitudes.

4. Mahi light kettlebell at the fingertips.

To grip the palm with the bow, use magnesia. The bow of the kettlebell must be grasped from above without excessive brush pull.

ERROR. THE ARM IS BENT IN THE ELBOW DURING THE LIFT TO THE HALF SIT.
In this case, at the moment of undermining, the arm unbends and absorbs. The power and whipping of the undermining is lost, and the constantly bent arm quickly gets tired.

Reasons for the error:

1. The inability of the athlete to perform the market with the most relaxed muscles of the arm and shoulder girdle.

2. Weak arm muscles.

Correction.

The following exercises are recommended:

1. Holding a heavy kettlebell hanging at different heights (at the level of the middle of the legs, knees, middle of the thigh) up to 10–15 s.

2. Jerk swings with different amplitudes.

When performing these exercises, the arm should be straight, the muscles of the arm should be as relaxed as possible.

ERROR. THE BACK IS BENT DURING THE LIFT TO THE HALF SEAT.
Because of this, the muscles of the back are unnecessarily tense, they get tired faster. Impaired coordination of movements of the trunk, legs, arms.

Reasons for the error:

1. Weak back muscles.

2. Inability to properly hold the back (mistakes in training).

Correction.

To strengthen the muscles of the back, perform the appropriate exercises:

1. Various slopes with weights.

2. Exercises with a barbell: lifting on the chest in the rack and in the semi-squat, jerk and jerk pulls, snatch in the rack and semi-squat.

3. Jerk swings with different amplitudes. If a mistake is made due to improper training, the following snatch lead-up exercises must be well mastered:

I.p. standing, weight hanging. Keeping a straight back, bend your legs, take your pelvis back a little and tilt your torso, hold for 3-4 seconds, then slowly straighten up without bending your back.

4. Kettlebell snatch throws (swings) are first performed from a high stand, then from a medium and low stand. Pay special attention to the position of the back. It must be straight and slightly bent but not bent (hunched).

ERROR. AFTER EXPLOSION, THE WEIGHT GOES FAR FORWARD.
Because of this mistake, the coordination and consistency of further movements of the arms, legs and torso is completely destroyed. Breathing stops. Rapid fatigue sets in.

Reasons for the error:

1) Excessive preliminary swing of the kettlebell (retraction – behind the knees).

2) Weak back muscles.

Correction.

Perform jerk swings and kettlebell snatch from a high rack without lifting the elbow from the body during the blast. To strengthen the muscles of the back, perform the same exercises. as with other errors associated with insufficient strength of the back muscles.

ERROR. EXPLOSION TOO EARLY.
The athlete in this case performs one of the basic movements of the snatch from a less comfortable position. Loss of power and traction.

Reason for the error:

From the starting position (in a high stance), the athlete hurries to straighten the body, without first giving the pelvis and hips a little forward to take a more advantageous stance for the final effort (undermining).

Correction.

Performing a snatch from the starting position should begin with a slight extension of the pelvis and hips slightly forward, then the legs and torso are straightened together, bitingly (try to jump out, as it were).

Recommended exercises:

1. Standing on toes with raised shoulders, hold the kettlebell hanging on a straight arm (5–7 s).

2. Slow kettlebell rows from high, then medium and low racks with access to toes and with a shoulder lift.

3. Kettlebell snatch swings with calf raises.

4. Lifting the kettlebell to the chest from a high rack. Raising on toes is used only when teaching snatch technique and correcting mistakes.

ERROR. INCOMPLETE EXTENSION OF THE LEGS AND BODY IN THE EXPLOSION.
The athlete is in a hurry to sit down faster, “does not open”. The movement turns out to be incomplete, the kettlebell rises to an insufficient height, it is necessary to make a deeper semi-squat, it is difficult to hold the kettlebell at the top.

Reason for the error:

In this case, there can be many reasons. First of all, the technique of individual elements of the snatch is insufficiently mastered and consolidated: undermining and lifting the shoulder, poor coordination of the movements of the arms, torso, and legs.

Correction.

Perform the following special auxiliary exercises from a high stance with access to socks (almost jumping):

1. Standing on toes, holding the kettlebell in the hand lowered down, raise and lower the shoulder.

2. Jerk swings to various heights from a high rack.

3. Snatch of a lightweight kettlebell from a high rack without a squat.

ERROR. Snatch DEPLOYMENT IS PERFORMED BY THE BACK ONLY.
Because of this mistake, the back muscles get tired very quickly.

Reason for the error:

Before undermining, the athlete does not bring the pelvis and knees slightly forward (in a high stance), because of which the legs are weakly included in the work.

Correction.

It is necessary to master the technique of lead-in and special-auxiliary snatch exercises and the requirements for their implementation, paying special attention to the coordination of movements of the legs, torso, and shoulder.

ERROR. THE BRUSH IS NOT PUSHED INSIDE THE ARM WHEN THE WEIGHT IS FIXED UP ON THE STRAIGHT ARM.
Because of this error, the flexor muscles of the fingers are in constant tension. The brush “fails” early, calluses are rubbed faster.

Reason for the error:

The inability of the athlete to bring the correct weight to the moment of the protrusion of the hand (at the level of the head and above).

Correction.

When performing lead-in and special-auxiliary exercises, pay special attention to the position of the hand and the bow of the kettlebell during lifting to a semi-squat (see “Jerk Technique”).

ERROR. THROWING THE WEIGHT THROUGH THE HAND BEFORE FIXING UP AND DURING DISCHARGE TO I.P.
In this case, it is difficult to pass the brush into the bow. The kettlebell hits the forearm. Muscles get tired faster.

Reasons for the error:

1. During the ascent, the athlete does not turn the handle of the kettlebell with an angle forward – up, does not tear off the brush from the handle after undermining and does not push it into the handle, but throws the kettlebell over the brush.

2. At the beginning of the kettlebell drop with the arm raised up, the athlete does not turn the kettlebell around the forearm, but again throws it over the hand.

Correction.

It is necessary to master the leading and specially auxiliary snatch exercises. Pay special attention to the position of the hand and the bow of the kettlebell from the beginning of the snatch to its end.

ERROR. TOO LATE INTO THE ARM.
The athlete tries to put the hand into the bow when the kettlebell has already lost momentum in the upward movement. As a result of millet, either it does not work out, or it is performed with difficulty. It is necessary to stick the brush into the bow at the last moment of the weight’s movement upwards by inertia.

ERROR. LATE INTERCEPTION OF THE WEIGHT ARM WHEN LOWERING FROM THE TOP.
In this case, the weight has time to drop to the level of the belt. At the moment of interception, he strongly pulls his hand down. As a result, the hand gets tired faster and calluses are rubbed. abrupt load falls on the muscles of the hand and back, the coordination of movements of the arms, legs, and back is disturbed.

Causes of errors:

1. Inability to grab the bow in time and correctly when dropping the kettlebell.

2. Too early start of the torso when lowering the kettlebell.

Correction.

Pay special attention to the technique of lowering the kettlebell and the movements of the hand, shoulder, legs at the beginning of lowering and the speed of intercepting the bow (see the “Jerk Technique” section).

ERROR. PREMATURE TILT OF THE BODY WHEN LOWERING THE WEIGHT FROM THE TOP IN I.P.
As a result, the “braking” of the rate of fall of the kettlebell begins at the very end of its downward movement. abrupt load приходится на мышцы спины, сбивается ритм и согласованность движений. The back and arm get tired quickly.

The reason for the error is due to haste in training, the athlete did not master the technique of lowering the kettlebell.

Correction.

Jerk lifts (swings) to different heights of a lightweight kettlebell with slow lowering. In these exercises, pay special attention to the position of the shoulder, torso, legs at the beginning of the lowering and the beginning of the torso.

ERROR. INCONSISTENCY OF THE WORK OF THE LEGS, ARMS AND BODY.
This will not allow the athlete to fully reveal their physical capabilities and show a high result.

The reason for the error is haste in learning and ignorance of the basics of the snatch technique.

Correction.

First of all, it is necessary to master well all the elements of the snatch separately, then, observing the technique for performing each element, combine 2–3 elements in one exercise. All this should be combined with breathing, and only after that you can proceed to the study of the snatch technique in general (see “Technique for teaching the snatch” and “Elements of the snatch and requirements for their implementation”).

ERROR. INCONSISTENCY OF MOVEMENTS WITH BREATHING.
As a result of this error, fatigue occurs much faster due to holding the breath.

Reason for the error:

During training, individual snatch techniques were mastered not in combination with breathing.

Correction.

Mastering all the elements and connections of the snatch elements in combination with breathing.
