Skill Work:

For Time:

- 30 Reps, 135 lbs Snatch (Click for Video Demo - Also see THIS LINK to watch Josh Everett do this in record time!)

(Compare to 6 March 2009)

This one is supposed to be over quickly, so chose a weight that allows you to finish around 3-4 minutes. Just like "Grace," this is an "anyhow" workout. In other words, get the bar from the ground to overhead in one motion, any way possible: full squat snatch, power snatch, muscle snatch.

***Rest 90 seconds

For the first round, the weight is 45-lbs and the rep count is 8 per exercise. For the second round, add 10-lbs per side (thus 65-lbs total bar weight) and do 7 reps per exercise. The third is 85-lbs for 6's. Continue down to 1 rep per exercise at 185-lbs. If you cannot move up in weight, make a note of it in your journal, but continue working down the rep scheme until you are at 1 rep. You cannot put down or let go of the bar at all during a round.
