Fitness 500

Hang power snatch 3-3-3-3-3

95-95-95-105-105

Worked mostly from mid-thigh but also from the high hang position. I'm going to blame most of my problems on the lack of chalk, but surely there's more to it. Really need to increase barbell and strength movements in order to progress. Bobby was hammering power snatches at 135# and beyond.

Metcon:

10 front squats (135#)
2 burpees
8 front squats
4 burpees
6 front squats
6 burpees
4 front squats
8 burpees
2 front squats
10 burpees

Finished behind Bobby by about 5 burpees. Front squats were interesting in the metcon because of the difficult stabilizing the midsection. Can't believe I originally programmed bodyweight for the front squats -- that wouldn't have been possible. Found it difficult to breath on front squats and burpees were the perfect compliment.
