I can finally do snatches with my 12 KG bell!

I have only been able to do them with my 8 KG bell. Every time I tried to use the 12 KG it felt like I was dropping the bell from 15 feet and pulling my arm out of my socket. I watched 30 videos about snatching all on slow motion but my brain could not figure it out.

I got up to 24 kg with one armed swings but snatches were like another language or something.

I did it by doing 3 X 10 thrashing snatches almost everyday with the 8 KG bell for 2 months. I mean the 8 KG bell is so light that it felt like it was a waste of time but I figured that I would just keep snatching until my body figured out the right way of doing it.

They should provide some mental stimulation, stronger grip, cardio, and stronger shoulders for backpacking. I'm a very bad presser too. I hope it helps with that.
