PERFORMANCE

Warm-Up.

The Complete Snatch Warm-Up

Followed by…

Snatch Barbell Complex

Then…

A. Worked up to 95# (90# is 80%)

B. Hit all rounds at 95#. After two near misses in the squat, switched to power Snatch. I need to work on squat snatching… just not comfortable in the receiving position when it gets a tiny bit heavy.

Well done! It was a tough one on the legs. I went into the workout thinking I would take a rest after the metcon, and then do the 500m as a finisher. I felt pretty good going in to the last round and just went for it. It was 2 seconds off my fastest 500 which was encouraging.
