Kettlebell 100 rep Snatch Test

Clothing must allow the instructor to assess the student for proper form. The instructor must have a clear view of the elbows and knees, t-shirts and gym shorts are encouraged.

Please inform your instructor if you suffer from a medical condition that prevents you from locking your elbows out. Note that being generally stiff or having poor flexibility does not count as a medical condition.

Begin by getting into position and waiting for your instructor’s command to start. Hike-pass the kettlebell back and snatch it overhead in one movement, ending with a straight-arm lockout. The instructor will call the rep number upon the proper lockout of both the elbow and the knees. The student must remain motionless until the rep is called. Failure to do so results in a “no count” being called by the instructor.

You may swing and change hands as much as needed

You may set the kettlebell down and rest as needed

Time announcements are given throughout the test

Acceptable hand-coverings for the test include: tape, socks, Dragon Skins™, and minimalist gloves (i.e. cotton gardening gloves). You may use chalk and reapply it during the test, if needed. You may not use belts, thick or padded-gloves, wrist wraps or any other equipment designed to support your body.

No Count Criteria

Lowering the kettlebell without the instructor’s count

Not locking out the elbows
