Snatch Sandwich

Rested yesterday. Can’t believe how minor the DOMS ended up being from the 400m lunge. My ass barely got sore at all. Went to the 4:30 today.

Warm-up

  • 3 Sets
    • 10 Reverse Hyper (140#)
    • Dead Hang
  • 800m Run

Weightlifting

Complex of 1 Snatch Pull + 1 Snatch High Pull + 1 Squat Snatch + 1 OHS

  • 75#
  • 95#
  • 115#
  • 135#
  • 145#
  • 155#
  • 135#
  • 135#

Been a long time since I’ve done a full snatch with 155. Didn’t feel wonder, so I backed off for two more sets.

Conditioning

E5M – 5 Sets

  • 200m Run
  • 8/8 KB Snatch (53#)
  • 200m Run

I pulled out my wrist wraps for the snatches to protect my wrists. Probably haven’t wore them in a year or two.

Good gut check WOD for pushing the pace. Brandi started off with a faster pace on the run than I was thinking, so then for the remaining rounds I set a mini goal to get faster each round. My splits were 2:37, 2:32, 2:28, 2:28, and 2:22. I really thought round 4 was fast, but it turned out to be the same as round 3. With nothing left to do, I pushed both runs in the final round.
