Skill
Every 45 seconds for 8 rounds:
3 touch and go power snatches
Just like Monday’s power clean work, the focus is on solid technique and smooth cycling of the barbell. The snatch in particular is tough to keep under control at heavy weights on the descent, so make sure you stay within a manageable range.
