A. Started at 55 after doing lots of warm ups.
Worked up to 100# which is a 5# PR. Super excited to nail it as I was failing 90 last week. Interestingly, the heavier I went, the better my form and more precise I was in the lift.

B. This was hard.

149m/12c, 144/11, 147/12, 147/12, 147/12, 147/12, 145/11, 146/12, 149/11.
S
Power snatch @ 75#. Unbroken T&G for all.

30 seconds is about my max for a true sprint, I’m much better at longer distances!

How do you ladies do it? Even if I average out my rolling meters….it’s only about 148 per round. I am not sure if I should lower the tension or if its just because I’m so darn short (4’11”). I have watched soooo many videos and played with sooo many techniques…any advise would be GREATLY appreciated!!

Wow, just when I thought I was good at working out… thanks CJ and Michele for challenging us every day!

A. 175, got there quick and couldn’t get past it. Footwork was jacked up today.
B. Used 135#, had to go to hang snatch singles after rd 5 instead of from the floor(started doing the pooping dog and the hang helped me stay firmly planted) my homework is to spend some accessory time on footwork.
Row was 145-165m each rd.

A. New PR 145, and it actually felt better than 140.
B. kcal/meters:
15/170, 13/164, 13/154, 12/153, 12/152, 12/152, 11/152, 11/148, 11/143, 12/153
– 105 on the bar for snatch
– this was fun but so challenging, the rest periods just started to disappear after the 4th set.

B. Rx @85#
Row- meters were the rolling number
176/159/155/156/159/163/156/158/160/158m

Here’s how I attacked today’s workout. It is my 6th day in a row and I’m feeling it.

A. I kept the snatches super light (63-93#) and did 3 reps every 2 minutes. Mostly working on my lift-off and not shooting my butt up. After missing a couple at below 70-75%, I decided to call it a day for anything strenuous.

A.2 I continued with 4 sets of 2 lift-offs + 1 snatch pull (123#)

B. 5 sets:
30 seconds band pull-aparts
30 seconds rest
30 seconds Slingshot glute activation (different drill each round)
30 seconds rest

Thanks, Michele for your snatch intro. Unfortunately I worked out before it posted but next time! A. Worked up to 115 which is a PR but only because I very rarely snatch. It’s a hard movement so I’ve tended to stay away but I can see why people love to snatch. The balance, quickness and strength required are legit. That said, it did feel better this morning so I should probably keep doing it 😉 B. Done. Used 90# for the three power snatches and while I didn’t count the meters rowed per round, I did get a total: 1680m,… Read more »
