20 Alternating Dumbbell Snatches (100/70 lbs)
9 Deficit Parallette Strict Hanstand Push-Ups (4″/2″)
Customizations:
Dumbbells – 20 reps at 70/50lbs OR 30 reps at 50/35lbs
Handstand Push-Ups – Non parallette deficit (4″/2″) or 12 strict with no deficit
TIME CAP = 12 MINUTES
Athlete Notes:
Today’s workout was taken straight from the Rogue Invitational. The dumbbell is very heavy and the skill quite difficult, so don’t be afraid to customize this workout in order to finish it under 12 minutes. The snatches should be at a weight that you can stay above the dumbbell and continuously put your hands back on it. If you’re having to step away after a couple reps, it’s probably too heavy. You don’t have to go unbroken, but we also don’t want each set of 20 taking 3 minutes. For the handstand push-ups the parallettes were set at a standard width for everyone. The base of the parallettes were about 6″ apart which meant it was very narrow. If you want to hit this as prescribed go for it, but we also don’t want you staring at the wall, so widen them out if you need to. These are a movement that almost everyone broke, so don’t be afraid to break early and often to avoid burnout. That first round is a bit of a trap, it all comes down to being consistent by round 3. If you blow up, it’s a long road back. Have some fun and compare your score to some of the best in the world!
