I can't do hook grip in the snatch because my hands are too small. I can do hook grip in deadlifts fine so it's probably my lateral wrist flexibility that needs improving

How do I into bendy wrists
 
How important is the hook grip, does it make much of a difference? I've only ever used a pronated grip and have never had a problem.
 
when i used to snatch, hook grip seemed more comfortable, dont know why though.
 
I am pretty sure the title to this thread was supposed to be "Can't get any snatch".

Hook grip is also code for hooker too.

No, I have to grip near the collars because of my long arms, legs and short torso. I think I fixed this issue though, I found that if I use a slight arm bend then I can grip the bar properly. Could still work on my wrists tho

Just stops the bar slipping out, you can lift more weight as well but that's not an issue atm lol
