Monday, August 28, 2017 - Snatch and Jerk Technique and Hip Strength

The intent of today is to address the snatch (lack of finishing the pull and low power in the second pull of the snatch) and jerk (weak legs in jerk and lack of balance and vertical aligment in the jerk). Loads can be kept in ranges as prescribed, with the last section (12min EMOM) being performed with first exercise in first minute, second exercise in second minute, and so on for a total of 12 minutes.

If you are interested in receiving both workouts every week, as well as an additional WOD (a total of 3 per week), you can SUBSCRIBE HERE to receive all Weightlifting WODs in advanced before each week.
