Today’s WOD is similar to one we did in May. May 29th to be exact. It is a high skill WOD designed to help you with your squat snatch. Don’t forget, skill WODs should not exceed 75-80% of your max effort.
We are breaking down the snatch into 3 pieces. You will start with the overhead squat. Take a few minutes to find a heavy weight. After a few sets, you will use that overhead squat to practice pushing yourself below the barbell with a snatch balance. You will finish by adding the first part of the hand squat snatch to get the barbell moving . You will then use the technique from the snatch balance to push below the barbell, and the skill of the overhead squat, to catch the barbell in a low position.
