The Barbell Snatch is an Olympic-style weight lifting move, which many people think of as just a big man lifting a big thing in the air. But I think of it as a combination of beauty and explosive power. A true test of raw strength, where an athlete lifts the heaviest weight possible, sometimes three times their own body weight, off the ground and above their head in one movement. If done correctly, the athlete receives three weight circles, letting them know they have done it. Here is capture by hand in chack on a chack board one frame at a time.
