We do the dumbbell snatch often from a hang position but not too often that we alternate. Alternating requires another level of complexity as we have to pull the weight from the ground. The additional range of motion tends to be a position not everyone has the best mobility or awareness of. Make sure we have options to have our members safe but also progressing to control in a bigger range of motion while staying explosive.
