Innovative training for a weightlifter in the snatch, and how the technique of weightlifting exercises is developed on a special simulator.

As you know, progress does not stand still, and more and more new devices are appearing in modern sports. They help athletes in various sports disciplines reach unprecedented heights. From this review you will learn how to polish weightlifting exercise technique modern weightlifter. And for these athletes, trainers have training instruments, devices and even entire computerized weightlifting and training complexes in their arsenal.

As is known, the greatest difficulty in training a weightlifter is weightlifter snatch training. According to sports expert analysts, it is this option of lifting the projectile that is the most technically complex, extremely labor-intensive physically, and the most traumatic. It was to practice the correct snatch technique that the training complex in question was created. Although, naturally, in addition to the snatch, they also polish the correct style of performing the clean and jerk.

A device for recording spatial parameters of rod movement.

The device provides immediate information about the spatial movement of the rod, which allows you to make adjustments to lifting technique.

The device (Fig. 1) consists of the following elements: screen 3, size 500X2000 mm, thickness 3 mm; internal frame 5; ball bearings 13; blocks 6, 7, 8, 17; outer frame 14; springs 4; driving roller 11; driven roller 12; graduated tapes 15; barbell with tip 2; cargo 16; bracket 9; writing element 10; threads 1.

I first became acquainted with this device while demonstrating an impromptu master class of various exercises in the gym... During the training process for performing weightlifting techniques on the device, immediately before the weightlifter lifts the projectile, the internal frame is moved to a position in which the writing element is located on the center line of the tape . Then the barbell with the tip (which in this case is attached rigidly) is pressed against the screen. The end of the thread is attached to the barbell in a taut position. When lifting the barbell, the trajectory of the barbell movement is drawn on the screen with the direction forward and upward relative to the weightlifter. At this time, the thread, turning the blocks, moves the tape 15 from top to bottom, and the writing element draws on it the trajectory of the rod in the right-left direction.
