Episode Synopsis

🏋️‍♀️ Extended version of this interview: https://www.patreon.com/posts/snatch-technique-101465552 🏋️‍♀️In this interview, Paulina Szyszka discusses the technical differences between successful and unsuccessful attempts in the snatch. Paulina is a lecturer at the Academia of Physical Education in Biala Podlaska, Poland. She also coaches in the weightlifting club, working with athletes from the age of 11 to elite international weightlifters, including a recent European Champion (81kg).This study is special. Paulina collected the data at the 2013 World Weightlifting Championships held in Poland. She recorded all the attempts in the A sessions but analyzed only the pairs of successful and unsuccessful attempts at the same weight, attempted by the same athlete. The same lifter attempting the same weight and being unsuccessful first, and successful on the second try, is the ultimate control. Not only the design of this study is perfect, but this was the biggest stage in weightlifting there is - the Worlds. This exciting study shows what exactly differentiates between unsuccessful and successful lifts?Enjoy!Original paper:Mastalerz A, Szyszka P, Grantham W, Sadowski J.
