Old School Russian Weightlifting Technique Drills

May 15, 2012 By Gregor Winter

Check out this Russian weightlifting technique video from 1989.

The title translates to something like “Methods of improving the technical skills”.

One of the drills they show is a jump onto a box while snatching and cleaning. Anybody used this before?

Also, check out this split jerk foot position device. I wonder how many people rolled their ankles on this one.
