Double Dumbbell/Can Snatch
This compound movement engages multiple muscles simultaneously and is most effective when combined with the other exercises.

Step 1: Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and hold 2 dumbbells or cans. Squat down and touch the weights to the floor. Keep your back straight and your weight off your toes.
Step 2: Stand back up quickly, then push the weights overhead. Use only as much weight as you can safely control during these movements. Lower the weights back to the floor.
Step 3: This counts as 1 repetition. Try to perform 3 sets of 12 repetitions and adjust weight, sets, and reps accordingly.

This exercise provides a challenging full-body workout. Although it may initially be difficult, it is easy to master with practice.
