    Squat Snatch
    1-1-1-1-1-1-1

    Work up to a strong effort squat snatch.  Start light and increase in small increments after successful lifts.  If you are still working on learning the snatch begin by catching the bar in a power snatch and ride it down into the bottom of your overhead squat. Only add weight if you are able to smoothly ride the bar down into your squat.  If your mobility is challenging you play with your foot and hand positions to find your optimal squatting stance. Take the bar as deep as you can with the bar remaining over your base of support.

    E2MOM for 14 Minutes

    3 Power Cleans

    Work up to a moderate weight and perform 7 sets of 3 reps every 2 minutes for 14 minutes.   New lifters should start with a moderate weight and work on  catching the bar with elbows up and in a partial squat.  You should be dropping lower with each rep to catch the bar rather than yanking it off the floor.   Add weight if the progression is going well. For experienced lifters target 70% for your starting weight.

    Alex Hausserman, Ryan Williams, Jeff Patzer, Drew Shempp, Kaitlyn Kassis, Beth Stankevich, Barbara Thatcher, Ann Spevacek Team Training for Nor Cal Regionals 2014!

    Today we’re introducing a new concept into our programming!

    This workout starts by completing NO MORE than 2 rounds during the first 6 minutes.  You should cruise through these rounds and work on perfect technique.  When  you complete the first two rounds take some time to rest and evaluate the load you chose for the workout.  The Snatch is one of our most difficult barbell movements  and finding the perfect weight can be the difference between a meaningful workout or suffering through a slugfest.  After you reach the 6 minute mark ramp up the intensity and continue on getting as many reps as possible in 14 minutes without sacrificing form.

    Special thanks to Jeremy from Diablo CrossFit for introducing this concept to us!

    WOD

    Minutes 0-6 Complete only 2 rounds of the following:

    1 Squat Snatch + 2 Overhead Squats 135/95lbs
    1 Squat Snatch + 2 Overhead Squats 135/95lbs
    200M Run

    *Completing the barbell complex twice and a 200m run = 1 round

    During Minutes 6-20

    AMRAP of the same complex

    1 Squat Snatch + 2 Overhead Squats 135/95lbs
    1 Squat Snatch + 2 Overhead Squats 135/95lbs
    200M Run

    *Completing the barbell complex twice and a 200m run = 1 round

    Off Ramp WOD

    Scaling here is by load or by scaling the movement if you are not ready for overhead squats! Safely work the reps by challenging your depth or perform heavy goblet squats.

    For the pull-ups try to maintain a moderate but challenging set each round. Increase by 1 rep from the last time you did this if this a repeat.  The front squats start from the floor.
