What It Is
A powerful hip snap swings the weight from between your legs to overhead. It builds explosive strength and gets your heart pumping.
How to Do It
Stand with feet a bit wider than your hips and hold one dumbbell by one end with both hands. Bend at the hips and swing it back between your legs. Snap your hips forward to swing it overhead with straight arms. Let it fall back between your legs for the next rep.
Skill Level
Intermediate. Free-weight lifts, single-leg balance under load, or near-bodyweight strength moves. Form matters.
Type
Power. Builds explosive strength with fast, forceful movement.
Engagement
Bilateral. Each rep works both sides of the body at once.
