Snatch 2-2-2-2-2-2-2 reps
Post loads to comments.
Stimulus and Strategy:
Today's workout is a heavy day. Keep in mind that heavy is relative to each athlete. Look back at Jan. 5 and March 9 to compare with similar heavy snatch day numbers. You may regrip between reps. Build to a heavy double across 7 sets. If you miss a lift, reduce the load and make the needed corrections before building back up.
Spend time in your warm-up working on the squat snatch. If you need to switch from a power snatch to a squat snatch as the weight increases, this can be a challenging transition without practice.
Intermediate option:
Same as Rx'd.
Beginner option:
Same as Rx'd.
