Kettlebell snatch (two-hand)
Bodyweight Strength - The Two Hand Kettlebell Snatch is fantastic functional strength, power, speed, coordination, and explosiveness exercise and is performed exactly like the Two-Hand Kettlebell Clean except that instead of stopping the upward movement of the kettlebell at the shoulder, you will continue the momentum all the way through until the shoulder and elbow reach a fully locked out position overhead (the ending position of the Two-Hand Kettlebell Military Press). After completing the rep, allow the kettlebells to come back down into the next swing by following the same path of trajectory that they followed on their way up. Swing up into the next rep in the same manner that you would if performing Two Handed Kettlebell Cleans.
The Kettlebell Snatch requires maximum speed because of the distance that the kettlebell has to travel (just like the Dumbbell Snatch and the classic Olympic Snatch). For this reason, it is an excellent exercise for athletes who's sports requires maximum speed and explosiveness.
Be sure to master the Two Handed Kettlebell Clean, the Overhead Squat, and the One-Hand Kettlebell Snatch before attempting the Two Handed Kettlebell Snatch.
