From The Author

“The purpose of this book was to provide athletes and coaches with a visceral understanding of the most difficult movement to be performed with a barbell. To lift up the veil, providing the weightlifting world with an airtight teaching progression, details of how to maximize results in the snatch, along with a comprehensive list of errors and how to program for and correct them, has been quite the undertaking, but one that needed to be done. Anyone who reads this book from cover to cover will come away with far more than they could have hoped, building a more thorough understanding of our great sport.” – Joshua Gibson
