Today was my first time doing squat snatches, that I can remember. They’re not my favorite. 😉
Squat Snatches:
7 x 45
3 x 55
3 x 60
5 x 65
2 x 70, with many failed attempts before & in between. Made lots of progress though…these are clearly something that require a lot of practice.

Continued on with Clean & Jerks (split)

It’s squat snatch again….
Something to do with Groundhog Day?

2 x 75
2x 75
1 x 85 … many many times, having a hard time to drop in a full squat when I get to that weight. I know I can power snatch more than that, but I have a hard time doing the squat snatch so lowered the weight
1 x 65 many many times again, and still had a hard time landing in a full squat… grr!

Glad to be able to practice the snatch, might show up during one of the CF Games WODs…

Did a few more at 95 just to work on technique a bit.
A fun one. Very impressive/inspiring to see the big guys go at it. Technique is a work in progress, but I felt a lot stronger this time getting under the weight.
45 x 5
95 x 3
135 x 3
155×1 It was at this point we discovered I was not really doing the squat part.
145 x 1 a bunch of times trying to get to a decent drop.
95 x 1 about a half dozen times until there was a decent improvement.
125 x 1 a few times more for good measure.
Thanks for the help tonight Patrick, I think by the end we had built a marginally acceptable form on this tricky lift. At least I understand what I was doing wrong and what I need to work on. Looking forward to applying the drop to my squat cleans. I plan on continuing to practice the drop on my own till it gets more comfortable.
Bring a Friend Day tomorrow! Yes, the WOD is first, followed by the strength. 21-15-9 Russian KBS Box Jumps Pullups HR Deadlifts x5 50-55-60-65-70% *full…
And what about the people that did this yesterday in the am??? Rest day??? Watch and/or coach???
There is no such thing as too much snatch!

They’ll have options.
Braved the storm & and visited my fam in SJ – while here stopped in at good Ol’ CFSJ and did a WOD I made up with my good friend Jon Ross
I’ll call this one
