Tuck jump:
From a standing position, jump up in the air while pulling knees up toward chest. Upper portion of leg (quads and hamstrings) should rise to at least parallel to the floor, then lower back down to standing position. Jumps should occur in rapid succession while maintaining the upward motion of the knees.
for those interested, there is a good article written by Bill Star about learning the full snatch.
Bo, where can I find the article?
sorry, forgot to tell where. it’s in the crossfit journal.
Darn good article!
Bo/Kris, just wanted to make sure that I downloaded the right article: Learning how to do full snatches, by Bill Starr, Jan 2010. Thanks!
Yay, Kris is back!
