  • For the Love of Snatch! Workout

    Holy hell, we must be in the middle of “Snatch Days” at the box. In the last 8 days, the snatch, in some sick, twisted variation, has showed up 3 or 4 times now.

    Mobility:
    Shoulders on bands

  • 800m run - 10 rounds of 10 pullups, 10 ring dips - 800m run Workout

    Mobility
    - Ball: 1st Rib
    - Band: Shoulder Internal Rotation
    - Barbell: Sink (Internal Rotation)
    Dynamic Warm Up
    - 10 KB Turkish Get Ups (53/35)

    WOD
    For time:
    A. Run 800 meters
    B. 10 rounds of the couplet:
    - 10 Pullups
    - 10 Ring Dips
    C. Run 800 meters

    Cash Out: 60 ghd situps

    Notes: The turkish getups were really hard on my shoulder @ 53 lbs. I dropped to 35 lbs and focused on form. I'd hate to be set-back again after all of the progress I've made. As for the WOD, it was tough. I did the first 5 sets as RX'd and went ahead and used the red band on my ring dips for the last 5 sets since my arms were flailing all over the place. I think I could've gone faster, but it was pretty congested in the pull-up ring area so we were taking turns. I could definitely try to up the intensity next time.

    What improved: My pull-ups are pretty solid. I did all of them unbroken only felt a little bit of fatigue on the last set.

    What to work on: Blake pointed out that as I was getting tired on the ring dips my arms were moving further away from my body, which is inefficient and makes the dips harder. I need to be more aware of that and keep my arms close to my body. Also, I need to learn how to do the butterfly kip. I think it's faster.
