For Whom the Bell Tolls

For Whom the Bell Tolls

Stance, grip and position. Check!

As we come to the end of the week of maxes, we have seen a ton of PR’s absolutely smashed.  The PR Bell is still ringing from all of them!  It is awesome to see the development of strength and fitness that is happening with all of our athletes.  Today we will have one more chance to smash PR’s.  The last time we attempted a 1 rep max for the snatch you only had 5 minutes to find it.  This time you will have the majority of the hour to drill positions and then build up to your new max snatch.  Work towards perfecting each and every lift.  We will begin with a 3 position snatch to help kick start our explosive power from the 3 positions.  Keep these fairly light, focusing on good setup for each position, explosive power and speed.  Stance, grip and position!  Now go ring the PR Bell!
