Skill
EMOM for 10 minutes
1 power snatch + 1 squat snatch
Spend ten minutes working on this barbell complex. You’ll start with a power snatch from the floor followed by a squat snatch which will also be taken from the floor. It is up to you if you want to drop or hang on to the bar between the two lifts. The only difference between a power snatch and a squat snatch is the position in which you catch the bar. If you are still working on getting comfortable in the overhead squat you can shoot for two power snatches focusing on catching the bar in in a partial squat rather than a full squat.
Workout of the Day
AMRAP in 10 minutes
7 power snatch
4 overhead squats
Today is all about snatching! Lighten your bar up after the skill work to a weight that feels good for multiple power snatch reps in a row. If you struggled with the overhead squat position in the skill work you can choose to do a front squat during the workout instead of the overhead squat reps. This workout should feel light and fast so make sure to select a weight on your barbell that achieves that.
