2. SNATCH WORKOUT
Not every training session is filled with glorious PRs and perfectly paced conditioning workouts. However the less-than-perfect days provide the greatest opportunity to grow as an athlete. You are given a shot to learn, overcome adversity, and adapt. So will you capture this moment? Or just let it slip?
Here are some lifts from a snatch workout:
- 3×3 at 80% (230lb) every 2:00
- 4×2 at 85% (245lb) every 1:30
- 4×1 at 90% (260lb) every 1:00
