Workout of the day

EMOM for 20 minutes

(odd) 1 squat snatch + 1 overhead squat
(even) 2 power snatches

Workout notes

We’re back on the EMOM train as the air quality has been fluctuating quite a bit day to day. Today’s workout is a 20 minute EMOM. On the odd minutes you’ll do one squat snatch plus an additional overhead squat. Both of these movements are difficult so spend some time before the workout going over good technique and how to scale to a shallower depth if needed. On the even minutes you will complete two power snatches. The goal of this EMOM should be to add some weight as you go to end up working with a heavier weight than you might use in a workout. Feel free to add a few extra power snatch reps to the even minutes if you find that you need to keep the bar really light to be able to complete the squat snatch and overhead squat. It’s been fun watching you all go for it with the lifting lately! Glad we hit our burpee quota on Saturday before the smoke rolled back in, hoping for clearer skies soon!
