kettlebell snatch

The kettlebell snatch is a dynamic exercise that involves lifting a kettlebell from the ground to overhead in one smooth, continuous movement. Starting with the kettlebell on the ground, you hinge at the hips, grasp the kettlebell, then use a combination of hip drive, arm pull, and a quick pull-under motion to rapidly swing the kettlebell overhead, finishing with your arm extended and the kettlebell stable overhead. It requires coordination, power, and control, engaging multiple muscle groups including the hips, core, shoulders, and arms, making it effective for strength, cardiovascular fitness, and functional movement.
