Thanks for clearing that up. A while back when Zack did a video about rotation he mentioned how the internal rotation isn't necessarily the goal but rather it was a result of the chest coming forward. I now clearly understand why.
You solved my 90% problem with doing snatch , thank you sooo much I not even catch barbell in 40kg but now i do my PR with 58kg Thank you sooo much 😍😍😍
Thank you for the explanation. I hear so much about this but this is the only demonstration I can understand. I am just learning Olympic lifting for CrossFit and have watched a ton of your subtitled videos - somehow reading the translation while watching helps me learn better! But I like the English videos along with the demonstration.
Thank you so much for this. I’ve been having the exact collapse issue when I attempt PRs. I’ll incorporate the chest forward and shoulder to ears in my movement. 💪🏽
Crossfit coaches need to see this video. Its always bothered me how they tend to emphasize having the elbow pits pointed upwards. Its just not a natural position
That’s funny, my CrossFit coach taught the same thing as oleksiy did in my CrossFit session this afternoon! He is very good at explaining weightlifting movements!
@@camerongray7767 At the CF-L1 they teach it elbows up. I've never heard an Oly lifter/coach outside of CrossFit teach it that way. I teach my athletes this version.
It's clear that the chest is the driving factor. Crossfit should teach that. Whilst chest is forward, naturally some people internally rotate, whilst others externally rotate. It matters not, as long as your elbows are locked because your chest is pushed forwards.
Dude I'm new to the Olympic lifting and have been looking at your channel. You need to do more of these because this is great stuff. Keep it up and keep it coming in English as well. Cold mind, Warm body.
Hey Oleksiy, great video as always! I’m wondering if you have tips for the jerk overhead position for people who have very little shoulder mobility. I’m doing thoracic extension drills and sleeper stretches for internal rotation, and it’s slowly getting better.
This is literally how I found this video. Literally just sitting here in bed years after stopping CrossFit, randomly thinking, "man I should Google the snatch shoulder position, I wonder CrossFit was wrong" and here I am.
You also have stronger internal rotating muscles than external rotating muscles. A lot of people have believed Kelly Starret’s teaching of external rotation overhead which is incorrect.
Well, they don’t really have to be stronger, they perhaps should work harder when the bar is overhead. Don’t forget to do external rotation drills. Your external rotators are often weak by nature (mine were super weak) and that can result in injuries.
great video as all of your previous ones. I'm a supper beginner trying to learn the proper move using PVC pipe. the Catch is not bad thanks to your videos however, the jerk is still difficult. Please give us some tips.
Great video, why does crossfit teach external rotation to all their coaches? Back when I was training crossfit that was the bible to do external rotation and anything else was wrong. Idk if this is true for all crossfit gyms but I guess the coaches all go through the same training program.

The previous videos weren't so clear, I hadn't understood the concept, but with this one, man, super ! Thanks
Dude your English is straight perfect now. Bravo!
Best vid I've ever seen on this important topic! And your English is excellent! Why didn't you make more vids in English before?
Most helpful person on the internet teaching weightlifting
You solved my 90% problem with doing snatch , thank you sooo much
I not even catch barbell in 40kg but now i do my PR with 58kg
Thank you sooo much 😍😍😍
This is by far the best explanation about WHY to internally rotate
Thank you for the explanation. I hear so much about this but this is the only demonstration I can understand. I am just learning Olympic lifting for CrossFit and have watched a ton of your subtitled videos - somehow reading the translation while watching helps me learn better! But I like the English videos along with the demonstration.
Awesome! This is, by far, the best position for your snatch/ohs. Thank you, Torokhtiy!
Thank you so much for this. I’ve been having the exact collapse issue when I attempt PRs. I’ll incorporate the chest forward and shoulder to ears in my movement. 💪🏽
Thank you for using English.Great video once again.Cheers from Greece

വീഡിയോ ഉയർന്ന നിലവാരം പുലർത്തി... ഇതുപോലെ നല്ല വിഡിയോയോസ് വീഡും ചെയ്യണേ. നന്ദി 👍
Love this explanation!
Thank you, I feel like you do a great job of explaining things in very simple terms, even children could watch and understand.
Well explained...
Information is gold , just like his 2012 Olympic medal 🤗
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Directly helpful! Smart and clear demonstration, well explinated!
Thank, Oleksiy!
I learned something new today, I wasn't aware that that was the best possible position to carry the weight I was just doing it jaja.
Thank you. Very very helpful video.
Bravooo! English is basically perfect now.
Thanks bro! I really need to power my snatch, and your tips are valuable. Спасибо
Very good explanation. Thanks 👍
thank you for the video, simple, well explained and straight to the point! 👌🏽
Such good tips!!!
Our shoulders are independent ***little shoulder dance***
Very simple and effective breakdown of this position. Excellent.
Thank you for speaking english!
Appreciated from India.
I like the way he says "chest forward"
I needed this video!! couldn't lock my elbows !
Dude I'm new to the Olympic lifting and have been looking at your channel. You need to do more of these because this is great stuff. Keep it up and keep it coming in English as well. Cold mind, Warm body.
So good information. We all appreciate this. Spasibo❤️👏🏽
man, I wish I had you as a coach/instructor but can't afford it.
super, doskonale
Incredibly helpful
Thank you so much . Good video
Oh THAT'S why you should rotate your elbows forward! This is good way to remember, thanks
Excellently explained thank you.
Thank you it is so much helpful
Excellent explanation. Thank you very much.
Great content, thank you
Thanks! Great tips and information.
🙌
Your body is getting more compact as well 💪
Hey Oleksiy, great video as always! I’m wondering if you have tips for the jerk overhead position for people who have very little shoulder mobility. I’m doing thoracic extension drills and sleeper stretches for internal rotation, and it’s slowly getting better.
He's the best.
2:19 “Our shoulders are independent” *cha cha cha*
Crossfit teaches the exact opposite, and what he just described just feels sooo much stronger that puts me in a more stable position.
czcams.com/video/YpAZY8oxqNs/video.html exact opposite instruction here
This is literally how I found this video. Literally just sitting here in bed years after stopping CrossFit, randomly thinking, "man I should Google the snatch shoulder position, I wonder CrossFit was wrong" and here I am.
Your English has gotten a lot better. Can you upload some back squat footage training?
He has already done those.
Perfect explanation! Thank you!
"The more kilos, your bar will start to smesh you."
Hm... sounds familiar
Smesh is every Dagestani man’s first word.
Very very helpful
Great information thank you!
Thank you thank you thank you thank you!
GRACIAS GRACIAS GRACIAS GRACIAS GRACIAS GRACIAS!

Great video

I get it now, thanks!
Oleksiy Torokhtiy makes it look easy. But when I try, it’s not 😂 My scapula mobility is not good enough. 😐 I need lots of training.
Thank you!!!
Thanks!
Bravissimo!
太棒 感謝
great video as all of your previous ones.
I'm a supper beginner trying to learn the proper move using PVC pipe. the Catch is not bad thanks to your videos however, the jerk is still difficult. Please give us some tips.
Great video, why does crossfit teach external rotation to all their coaches? Back when I was training crossfit that was the bible to do external rotation and anything else was wrong. Idk if this is true for all crossfit gyms but I guess the coaches all go through the same training program.
it is strange because it is very hard to do it differently that he is showing here.
Because CrossDressers want to deliberately be different. They want to be unique but end up having shit technique.
