General Training Notes:
We are moving the barbell down to the floor for today’s snatch progressions. You’ll set up as normal, pull to mid-knee and hold for 3 seconds. Complete a mental checklist to make sure you feel you hamstrings engaged by ensuring your knees are back and out with your shoulders over the bar (not behind them). Please film and upload to the FB group for feedback!
Then continuing with your ring iso holds on the top of the rings and at the end range of motion on the rings. Add progressions if you need – we want you building strong tendons in these positions so your ring dips feel bullet proof!
Conditioning today as semi-final bound athletes doing pistols and handstand walking. Off-season bound athletes are doing a similar version but with box step ups (not overs) and wall walks. Get comfortable with being winded and going straight into your step-ups. You can calm your breathing on your step-ups so that you can go immediately into your wall walks. This is a grind-y type of workout so put your head down and keep moving.

**Semi-final events should be released today at 12:00 pm. Be on the lookout for semi-finals training for Tuesday and Wednesday**

Optional Additional Work Sessions
*Please choose to perform only those sessions that are most focused on your weaknesses, and only perform as much of the additional work as you can recover from successfully before your next training session.
