New RKC Snatch Test and Grad Workout

Kettlebell Snatch Test Rules


The girevik picks up the kettlebell, swings it back between the legs, and snatches it overhead in one uninterrupted movement to a straight-arm lockout. If you have a medical restriction that prevents you from fully locking out your elbow you must notify the Chief Instructor during the course. Poor flexibility does NOT qualify as a medical restriction.

After fixing the kettlebell in the top position for one second, the girevik lowers the kettlebell between the legs in one uninterrupted motion without touching the chest or shoulder.
The snatch may be performed with or without a knee dip at the overhead lockout. The girevik is allowed to place the free hand on the hip or waist (but not on the thigh) and move the feet. However, the competitor must stop all movement when fixing the weight in the top position.
On each attempt, the judge will announce the repetition number or “No count.” A repetition is not registered if the competitor failed to lock out his elbow, pressed out the kettlebell to the finish, or touched the platform with a knee or free hand. If the student lets go of the kettlebell, stops to rest with the kettlebell anywhere but in the overhead lockout, leaves the platform, or makes more than one extra swing back when switching hands, the attempt is terminated.
The snatch is first performed with one arm, then, without stopping or resting, with the other. One additional swing back between the legs is allowed when switching hands.

When the competitor has quit, failed to make three attempts in a row, or committed any rule violation warranting termination of the set, the judge commands “Stop” and announces the number of properly performed repetitions.

The sum of both arms is scored, e.g. 25+25 =50, 30+20=50, etc.

Chalk is allowed; belts, wrist wraps and other supportive equipment are not.
