*Sets 7-8 @ 85% of 1-RM Snatch

The goal is to try to power snatch 85% of your 1-RM Snatch. If you are unable to power snatch 85% of your 1-RM Snatch – Treat this as a snatch double.

C.
35-49:
For time:
18 Alternating Single-Arm Dumbbell Snatches (50/35 lbs)
3/2 Legless Rope Climbs
12 Alternating Single-Arm Dumbbell Snatches
2/1 Legless Rope Climbs
6 Alternating Single-Arm Dumbbell Snatches
1 Legless Rope Climbs/1 Rope Climb with legs

50-54:

Note:
Please practice the new movement standard for the dummbell snatches. You will need to time it right when you go up for your rope climbs. I want you to be aggressive with your climbs but be smart when you take each climb. It does no good to go hot out of the gate just to be stuck on the last rope climb. I am looking for consistency in your climbs so be smart about your rest in between climbs.

Ideally you go as heavy as you can without putting the sandbag down!

I guess I didn’t explain myself clearly. What I meant is that I didn’t know the weight of the sandbag that I used since it wasn’t written on it. It was challenging though.
