1 Seated Start Stick Jump for Height
Extra Instructions / Points of Performance
Start sitting on a box at 90 degrees. Explode off the box in one motion and jump over a PVC pipe coming off of a box. Start at 24/20’’ and increase the height of the pvc pipe on each subsequent set. This allows for a safer jump for height as well as working on our ability to land with control. The focus is to pull the knees to the chest as high as possible after exploding into the jump in order to clear the PVC pipe.

15-12-9
Power Snatch, For Load
Rest as needed between sets
Choice on load for the 15 then the 12 then the 9. Total load is the score of the day
Extra Instructions:
This workout is meant to be a fun little challenge for the community today. We are tackling unbroken sets of Power Snatches with no clock. This means that the athlete has the choice to choose the loads and decide when to tackle them.
We want to work on barbell cycling patterns here and keeping the barbell close while also keeping the chest tall as we move to the floor. Work to push the bar to the floor as we don’t want to stop momentum on the thighs or loose tension by letting the barbell pull us to the floor. Think smooth and fast. For quick singles, the focus is going to shift to dropping the hips at the start of each rep as the tendency will be to leave those high when going back down for the next rep. For scaling, we can go to Hang Power Snatches and or lighten the load. We could also go to American KBS or Alternating DB Snatches for those that are limited with a barbell in their hands.
Developmental:
Hang Power Snatch, For Load
This is a great time for new athletes to practice mechanics with the hang power snatch and just work through positions here for the prescribed reps.
