Objective: build to a weight that is challenging but leaves room for the athlete to add weight to the bar every 3 rounds. (Compare to 7/27)
Strength Tip
If athletes’ technique is not there yet with the snatch, stay above the knees and master this position first before adding more range of motion. Make Sure athletes weight is in the middle of the foot, and their back is straight with their shoulders pinched back. If Movement starts to break down for the athlete, have them reduce the weight and focus on perfect light snatches.
