This is not touch and go, reset between each rep

Extra Instructions / Points of Performance

A floating snatch is essentially a hang snatch from the lowest possible position to the floor. This keeps tension throughout the lift and will help develop better tng mechanics that we are following up with later in the day.

We will use the first complex of the power snatch + floating snatch + snatch balance to really prime the system and build loads into the final 5 sets of the day that are all meant to be done as a full snatch build to 85%+ for 1 rep.

The goal today is to work on pressing the ground away, staying patient, and extending through the barbell overhead with a strong finish position overhead and tight midline.

Power Snatch

Metcon (Time)

Secondary Objective: Minimizing rest between sets

We need to choose a weight that allows for unbroken complexes today with quality mechanics.

1×20 Reps @ 60% of 5RM

Extra Instructions / Points of Performance

We should have our legs feeling a little toasty here after the metcon, but we will get weight set-up and loaded. Take a good deep breath and then tackle the weight for 20 reps as a finisher for the day. Every once in a while, we will do this as the end of the day in order to build up the muscular stamina and endurance as we progress towards our true 20RM in Week 10
