1. Which of the following is a movement variation of the
dumbbell snatch?
a) Dumbbell clean and jerk
b) Dumbbell swing
c) Dumbbell thruster
d) Dumbbell overhead squat
Answer: d) Dumbbell overhead squat
Rationale: The dumbbell overhead squat is a movement
variation of the dumbbell snatch, where the athlete lowers

overhead. The other options are different movements that
involve the dumbbell, but not the snatch.
2. What is the point of performance for keeping the

a) To reduce the risk of injury to the shoulder and elbow
b) To increase the power and efficiency of the movement
c) To maintain balance and stability throughout the
movement
d) All of the above
Answer: d) All of the above
Rationale: Keeping the dumbbell close to the body during
the dumbbell snatch helps to reduce the risk of injury to the
shoulder and elbow, as well as increasing the power and
efficiency of the movement by minimizing the distance and
time that the dumbbell travels. It also helps to maintain
balance and stability throughout the movement by
preventing excessive rotation or deviation of the torso.
