that would honestly tear my shoulder out of place. My chiropractor said hes never met someone as tense as me. I cant do an overhead squat (hold the bar straight up and squat) because my arms don't go backwards. I cant touch my either of my hands to their respectful shoulders. Some of this is tendon tension and some is muscle on small bones. but my ROM is getting smaller and smaller.

There are almost no men that can touch their hand to the respective shoulder. Most women can.

Tighten up your abs, lock down your lats, head up, pull explosively to a nearly vertical position, pulling the bar up to tap the middle of your chest.

You'll probably need more weight. If you can tap your chest and control the weight on the way down (first extending your arms, then shoulders, then squatting down to set the bar down lightly) more than 5 or 6 times, increase the weight.

Be careful to keep your back straight throughout the movement. Maybe this calls for a video...

oh...so youre actually supposed to snatch it...thought that was just the grip.

Yes and no.

Yes, the explosive lift stresses the upper back muscles really well. But if you have a lot of weight on the bar, and the rest of your body can handle it, and you start from pins or blocks in order to spare your lower back some and allow greater load, you'll hit those muscles without the explosive movement. A sufficient load would be one that will rip your shoulders apart if the upper back muscles don't resist.

And no, don't execute the third pull of the snatch (don't get under the bar.) The explosive version of this movement is all about getting the bar up high, with your scapulae going from fully extended to fully retracted and back to fully extended (when you bring the bar to a halt at mid-thigh) under the greatest possible tension.

Going to make a video now. :)

Do your trap workout . Then for a finisher try strapped deadhang power cleans .
Work sets til you cant get 3 clean reps. You might ask Concrete guy for his trap routine. I remember he posted it at ug and it was really good.

Seen a few spammers as of late but this one is not starting his own thread like the other ones I see here and at pm so probably not right out there for the mods to see.

You always know its a spammer cause their grammar is total crap... Spelling is always fine but conjugating verbs isn't a strong point of theirs.
