Tommy Kono Weightlifting

In the second part of this Tommy Kono lecture on Olympic Lifting there is a greater emphasis on the second part of the snatch (dropping down into the catch position). However, the emphasis still remains on the importance of keeping the bar close to the body.



Another point made was that it is acceptable to adjust the position of the feet prior to dropping into the catch position. If an athlete is struggling to acheive sufficient depth in the catch position, then a slight repositioning of the feet will help with acheiving greater depth.
