In our sessions, we slow everything down, using drills like the snatch grip deadlift and muscle snatch to build that critical foundation. You will learn the 'pakad ke rakhiye' (hold the position) mindset before we ever ask you to go for a heavy one-rep max. Olympic weightlifting is not about how much you can muscle up; it is about how efficiently you can move through a specific, technical path. My approach breaks the snatch into small, manageable phases. We start with the basics of pulling mechanics—using the snatch grip deadlift to teach proper leverage—before moving to the muscle snatch for turnover control. Many members come in thinking they lack power, but usually, the issue is mobility or timing. We use the overhead squat as a diagnostic tool. If you cannot stabilize a bar overhead in a deep squat, your snatch will always be limited. We fix this by focusing on shoulder, hip, and ankle mobility alongside your strength work. In our group classes, you will often hear me say, 'Jaldi mat kar' (Don't rush). Speed is important, but precision comes first. Whether we are practicing the drop snatch to improve your speed under the bar or focusing on the hang snatch to refine your hip extension, the goal is always consistent, repeatable technique. This is how we build confidence, rep by rep, and help you unlock explosive power. ## About Rajeev Sejwal I am Rajeev, and my life is in these programming diaries.
