1. Tuesday 23 Feb 2010 - “Cindy’s Snatch”

    6:30pm at BrandX

    Buy in: 5:00 of double-under practice

    WOD: “Cindy’s Snatch”

    As many rounds as possible in 20 minutes of…

    5 power snatch (95/65)
    10 push ups
    15 squats

    Cash out: Practice Lever and Ice Cream Makers.

    I managed 8 rounds + 3 reps of power snatch. Scaled weight to 65lb for my first three sets, dropping down to 45lb for the latter five once my form started degrading. I have relatively little practice with power snatch, so this was a good opportunity to practice clean form.

    Overall, good snatch practice, and a chance to apply some lessons learned about intensity after yesterday’s Fran. My goal for the next time I do this WOD is to stick to the same weight (65lb, or a bit more) for the duration of the entire workout.

    Oh, and I’m finally getting the hang of those double-unders! I really should have kept count because I had some very decent streaks in there.
