Skill
EMOM for 10 minutes
1 squat snatch

Spend ten minutes working up to a challenging squat snatch for today. We’ve been working a lot on technique using the slow pull and pausing in different positions so today is the day to put that all together. The pull from the ground should always be controlled with a focus on keeping the bar in close. Keep your gaze forward and chest up throughout the entire lift. If you’re not quite ready to be squat snatching feel free to work on a power snatch in each minute instead.

Workout of the Day
AMRAP in 12 minutes
20 sit-ups
12 push-ups

We’ve got a nice simple workout to end the week after yesterday’s barbell beat down:) You’ll have twelve minutes to rack up as many rounds as possible of twenty sit-ups and twelve push-ups. As always, hold yourself to a high standard on the push-ups. Whether you are working from your toes, knees or with your hands on a box make sure that your whole body is moving up and down together, not just your torso. If you are breaking at the hips during your push-ups you are decreasing the difficulty of this movement. Keeping push-ups strict will pay off! Settle in to a steady pace on the sit-ups and try to use this time to let your arms recover.
