Snatch Grip Deadlift, Squat or Hinge?

Good to know the low hips position is correct - I was intuitively doing them that way to increase focus on my quads but it’s comforting to know this is actually standard form.

One question though: If, like you say, the exercise is predominantly a squatting movement (the first portion at least), wouldn’t it be better to pair it with a hinge movement as opposed to bulgarians which i thought was a quad destroyer? hope this is not a silly question!

Sure, I thought that hip hinge movements were problematic. However if you do split squats with a “longer” stance, it hits the posterior chain nicely.
