That 125 got me hype

[@johanesjulianto4103]

I can do snatch with relatively good form & position from power position down to mid thigh, but below that, things start to fall apart. Can't have full extension, because I think I bring my back too far behind the bar. Any advice or drill to correct that? Thanks

Watch my Vardanian snatch video. Remove the contact and foot movement and it will greatly improve your extension.
