How to Perform Dumbbell Snatch
Stand with your feet about shoulder-width apart with a dumbbell placed on the floor between your feet. Bend at the hips and knees to grab the dumbbell with one hand while keeping your back straight and chest up. Drive through your legs and extend your hips explosively, pulling the dumbbell upward close to your body. As the dumbbell reaches chest height, quickly rotate your wrist and punch the weight overhead until your arm is fully extended. Stabilize the dumbbell overhead, then lower it back to the floor with control before repeating. Complete all repetitions on one arm before switching.
