No Touch-n-Go Snatches For Me

Went to open gym. It was a packed house tonight!

Warm-up

3:00 Air Dyne

Snatches

  • 5:00 45# Snatch Position Work
  • 2 @ 95#
  • 2 @ 115#
  • 5 @ 135# (disaster trying 2 TnG for the competition Sunday. I’ll be dropping each rep!)
  • EMOM: 1 Snatch
    • 145#
    • 150#
    • 155#
    • 160#
    • 165#
    • 170#
    • 175# F
    • 175#
    • 180#
    • 185# F
    • 185# F (waited a few minutes before this last attempt)

Felt ok, but wasn’t all that comfortable with so many people moving around me and talking to me when my next minute was about to start. Probably not the best thing to do during an open gym.

Back Squats

  • 2×5 @ 135#
  • 5 @ 185#
  • 2 @ 225#
  • 2 @ 255#
  • 2 @ 275#
  • 2 @ 295#
  • 1 @ 305#
  • 1 @ 315#
  • 4×3 @ 255#

Didn’t feel as good as Wednesday, but that’s 3 heavy squat days in a row and 5 this week, so I’ll take the effort. A lot of heavy reps!

WOD

10 Rounds

  • 30s Row
  • 30s Rest

The added deadlift and squat strength is translating to much more power on the rower. My meters were 151/152/153/154/154/154/154/156/157/158 and I still felt great at the end.
