Really fantastic video Gabriel, your English has improved a LOT from what I remember a few years ago, nice man!
But please never perfect English ok? Bene.
This is the first time I have heard a lifter say there is more than one way to preform the lift, and actually wants to see more. This I like 👍
Different clean styles!!
Master Class in UA-cam for free, my god, thank you Gabriel!!!!
I do the hope and pray snatch.
This kind of content suits you! I will give you a A+, good work, Gabriel!
Now that is a rock solid video! Awesome content, Gabriel! Thank you for this - amazing!
Before to know the Weightlifting i thought that brutal strong was important for 95% of final result ,but thanks video like this i understand how important is the technique, how in this marvelous discipline the technique is basic and need years and years to learn it .🙏
You should make a video like this regarding the clean and jerk as well!
@@gsincraian ye I'm always interested in how for example pyrros Dumas became so good with the powerjerk

Thank you for sharing your knowledge, Gabriel. You have my favorite technique of all the lifters I have seen and even though our body proportions are very different, I try to imitate your lifting technique all the time because I want to look as cool as you do when you lift! I hope you continue to share your learning and experience with us, your fans.
I thought my style was just called "wrong" lol. Bull Snatch sounds way cooler. I really liked the video!
After 2 years of trying to find out which snatch style I do, this video helped me to realize I have a European 1st and 2nd pull but my foot movement and receiving position is closer to Chinese
Finally technique videos from you! Very interesting topic also keep up the good work!
Always impressed by the huge effort to communicate in (pretty great) English by Gabriel and Klokov etc. Beyond incredible advice as always, love your app.
All of them are strong. None neglects squats or pulls. The main differences are body proportions, which basically drive everything else including hip/glute vs quad dominant 2nd pull technique. You can fight against your body proportions as Gabriel explained, but you will just lift less, feel less comfortable or increase risk of injury.
i think thats why he said "strength" and "power", its something different
which style has which body proportions if you would like to explain?
@@JackGunson-wc4cs There are certain schools of thought in different regions. You will see different start positions just because of who taught the technique. However if a lifter has long arms or legs or any kind of combination, that doesn't play well with the "dogmatic" style, the style will be detrimental. Not all chinese lifters use chinese style, not all europeans use european style. If your ankles grow in a way that won't allow sufficient dorsiflexion, you can use the "bull style" to some extent or hit your head against a wall trying to mimick european style. Shorter femurs are usually good for squats and so, good for quad dominant technique which can manifest right in the starting position and first pull. Lot of chinese lifters have relatively short femurs. Longer arms can cause lifters to bend them to bring the bar closer to hips in 2nd pull, just because of strange position of the bar if they don't. Longer femurs warrant different start position than short ones. So does the torso length. The problem is that combinations are endless. Generalisation to styles is good to keep it simple, but not good in practice just because ppl mimick what they like, not what they should. There are many more "styles".. the japanese, iranian, even african. I am afraid they are followed just because there's certain "tradition".
@@maco1985 thankyou for explaining
@@maco1985 exactly. That's why I think it is pretty 'useless' to categorize styles like in this video, because everything is based on your body proportions, limb lengths, leverages,..and that will determine how your snatch will look, so there might be more than just these 3 "styles", if you can call it like that. Although there's "Chinese school" of WL, European, etc.. they're usually different because of different proportions, leverages that these athletes *usually* exhibit (Chinese short femurs to relatively longer torso, European longer femurs, relatively short torso, with strong upper body pull,...). Just keeping few fundamental points in snatch is fine and then your body will adjust itself according to its proportions.
Your English is becoming better and better. Great video Gabriel !
Great video thank you, very hard to decide for new lifter
Wow, this is actually very helpful. I'm a taller guy, around 184cm, and I was trying to force the chinese style. I have a much stronger pull and upper body than squat and without knowing, had already adapted some of the technique differences mentioned in this video. Now I have a way to refer to my snatch technique! Thank you Gabriel!
Very nice video. Congratulations.
excellent description of the different styles. In Crossfit we see huge snatch differences because the variety of body types in crossfit is very large.
Excellent content! I would love to watch a competition and hear your comments before and after each lift. You breaking down Lu's technique is as good as it gets on UA-cam. You are a true Master of Olympic Weightlifting! 💪
I had this in my watch later playlist since it came out. I didn’t understand how to snatch 2 years ago at all. Now after 2 years of snatch training it makes so much sense having watched the whole video. I didn’t realize how much I am a bull snatcher. Also makes sense why I can’t mimic positions of others styles. I already knew it was because of anthropometry, just not the specifics of how different it really is.
Amazing video. Thank you, Gabriel.
Still working on mobility to be able to snatch, maybe some day soon though. Nice coverage on these snatch styles!
Wow. This video was awesome. With so many different cues out there, this video helped me better understand how body proportions and mechanics might affect position. I was trying to catch the bar "Bull" style by trying to get my arms further back in the catch position (and chest more in front) because I thought it was "the better, stronger way". But it feels way better when I'm more upright and shoulders are a bit less internally rotated. I'm not tall either, so yeah. Great video.
I can't even get more upright at the bottom 😪
The split snatch was popular in the 1950s and 1960s. Waldemar baszonowski was the last champion to use the split clean in the 1972 olympics.
Just found this video and wanted to say thanks. I've never really seen the "Bull Snatch" style described even though it fits exactly with my height, long legs, and tendencies.
Glad it was helpful!
ive been learning and reasearching about weightlifting for about 13 years now . this is the first time I've heard about these styles and it makes sense. Great channel
Great video! When I started to learn snatch I watch loads of torkrokov vids but it didn’t work for me well so I gradually changed to the way where I feel mostly comfortable with and also have had better understanding of the technique. This explains everything, love ur work man.
This was absolutely phenomenal thank you so much for sharing this!!!
Thanks Gabriel! Your content is awesome.
Fantastic video! It's much longer than a lot of your other videos and I thought it was great. You also did a very good job describing the three main ways of performing the snatch and emphasizing the differences between them.
This is such a good video Gabriel, thank you for making it, and showing people that dogmatic following of one style is not the way. Much love from Croatia
Fantastic informative video Gabriel. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Thank you Gabriel for always providing us with insightful and detailed explanations on differences and key focus points in Weightlifting. Amazing as always
Outstanding material. Thank you for all the information 🏋🏼
Great Video !!!!
Amazing to hear an Olympian explain this! You have so much understanding and insight. Thank you Gabriel
I love this type of content, thank you for uploading! I'm just starting out with olympic weightlifting so this is really helpful.
As someone who is apparently a bull snatcher, this validates a lot of what I've suspected about myself. Thanks for the analysis!
Great vid Gabriel!
Felicitari pentru material!!!
Great video. It's brilliant that young and hobbyist weightlifters can learn different techniques off an Olympic champion and world class athlete like Gabriel.
Thank you, Gabriel! Very helpful.
Thank you very much for sharing your experience and knowledge with us, @gabriel Sincraian. We really appreciate your contribution to the weightlifting community. If i can attain 50% of your speed, i will be happy.
Thanks for the video! I never knew I use the bull snatch, but I realise now that I do! Honestly makes a lot of sense given how tall I am and that I prefer deadlifts over squats any day 🏋🏽♀️
Great Content! I never new about the different styles! Thanks!
Hooray, new Gabriel video!
Congrats...a very didactic video...👍👍
Gabriel, your explanation of the european style was a huge fix for my technique! I recently got a pr but my technique looked bad with a jump forward and fighting the bar to stay under. Lots of internet videos cue staying over the bar the whole time, kind of like the bull snatch, but it was too forward for my proportions and the bar would always swing out after the knees and i always had to chase the bar out front. I’m sure i will get a better looking pr soon with the new cue of bringing the shoulders back after the knees to keep it close and balanced. Thank you
Really interesting video with different style in snatch exercise,and "Bullsnatch style" make the ideas really well
Awesome video! Very informative and great explanation of examples. 👍
Great video Grabriel, very informative!
Another very useful, I was wondering that Torokhtiy's still didn't look quite like the european style and the bull style explained it. Also really nice to know why different athletes do a different style and what might fit better for different people. Saves time and efforts if you find the style best suitable for you quicker.
Subscribed for the accent. Glad the content justified it! Great stuff!
Great video! This explains why I found some cues about shoulder rotation not suitable for me. Because of the cue I always tried to take my snatch to the Bull-position, which was unnatural for me. Thank you!
Great video! i've been wondering about this type of stuff for a while. Going to look at the rest of your content now. Also, I don't know what it was like before but I want to echo what the other comments said about your English because you're very easy to understand! My one suggestion would be turning up the volume a little bit when you're doing your voice-overs. I had to turn up my volume unusually high to hear you. Great content!
Awesome video Gabriel, great observations, thank you. My style is naturally most like the Bull Snatch, but I'm working on more influence from the European style to improve my efficiency!
My style is none of them because I've never snatched in my life... lol
My style is the failed snatch. This is where you drop the bar in front of you or sometimes behind you before completing the overhead squat. I'm very consistent with this style.
An underrated technique. I too employ this style with great regularity. It has a consistency that even top lifters only dream of.
@@NONO-hz4vo Little known fact: you get bonus points if you manage to hurt your shoulders trying to stabilize the bar overhead.
Great work Gabriel! Keep it going
Excellent Gabriel! I definitely use bull style because of my longer femurs
This is really nice. Thank you!
Fantastic content !!! Good luck for future!!!
I honestly think this is the most interesting snatch video I have ever seen - SO SO interesting! Thanks Gabriel!
Great video, both informative and entertaining
Great video Gabriel!
Great stuff! You should make a small video series expanding on this topic
Foarte tare, mersi pentru sfaturi!
Gabriel great video! We need more quality weightlifting videos! Some sources are running dry. I improved a lot with the Chinese method, staying grounded improved my timing a lot. But actually there’s points from all styles I use. I slowly build up my style working on what needs improvement. Staying faithful to the words: close, fast, low, rhythm, and balance and the principles: equal magnitude, simultaneous, and opposite direction. Again thanks for this video I hope to see more of this style videos from you!
Great shirt Gabriel
I've tried to do bull style for a long time, but I am realizing it actually may not be for me. thanks for making the video!
Great vid Gabriel thank you
Excellent! In the end it is all about how your body reaches the power position and how well your whole foot still touches the floor before pushing up and extend. Also, guys a bull snatch is different than a normal one in Which athlete could not extend and dived his head under the bar cuz of lack of power and extension.
Great video really helped me figure out the 1st pull with my long femurs
Glad it helped!
Great content Gabriel!
Thankyou Gabriel
great video, thank you!!!
Thank u Gabriel, i'm actually having a little problems with My snatch, now i understand why i'm i using the Bull Style! Once again thank, gretings from México!
Awesome video
man that was awesome
Great video.💪💪
Best video! 💪🏼🏋🏼♂️
This really helped me Gabriel. Im a lot taller than most athletes and my style is definitely the bull
Im glad it helped you 💪
I thought I was doing my snatches really wrong, but after you showed examples of the "bull snatch", I feel more confident knowing that elite weightlifters have a similar technique to me!
Thanks a lot for this video Gabriel.
Didn't know Gabriel had a channel. Subscribed! BTW: your english has really improved Gabriel! Keep up the good work
Bineeee Gabi !
Awesome video👍
You are a genius!!!
great video
awesome video ! Thank u !
You are welcome!
Thanks for the video, I have never heard of snatch styles being intentionally and knowingly different.
Other than a debate about "catapult" Vs "triple extension" that was more of a observer POV thing. I always thought that the lifters and coaches were trying to achieve the same goals but the results looked different because of body proportions.
Based on you description, urik vardanian is a good example of the bull snatch.
What I found interesting is that you said their is no effort to shrug and internally rotate shoulders in European style. I heard both of those cues from Chinese coaches , especially the internal rotation.
This video is good!
Very nice and informative video Gabriel. Do you think you would do one of these for cleans or jerks?
Informative video despite being difficult to understand 100%. I would recommend using subtitles
Dear gabriel thanks a lot for sharing this valuable information,More value when hearing this from you,thanks
@@gsincraian omg gabriel just replied me!!!!!insane🤩🤑
Great video!!! I think that I am in the Bull Snatch type
I love your videos (:
Hey gabriel, would be great if you could do mobility videos, I really struggle with rack position, specially in the clean. Thank you!
