[QUOTE=Nik Nichols;758660]Snatch 1-1-1-1-1-1-1 reps

1.95lbs
2.100lbs
3.115lbs F, got it
4.120lbs F,F,F, got it
5.125lbsF,F,F,F,got it
6.130lbs got it first try
7.135lbs F,F,F,got it

Last time max was 100lbs

I don't usually go past 3 attempts and count it, I usually call fail and drop weight. I guess I cheated today. I don't care.
I was determined to get this right. I'd miss and pray like a mad man for skill and strenth. I knew the weight wasn't to much, but it was all skill. I have OHS more this,this weight is not to heavy for me. It was all skill. I had to convince myself of that fact.

So I was determined to fight through doubt and keep going and figure out form. Good day.[/QUOTE]

YAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :highfive:

Love it. I've had days like that too with the Oly lifts. When it gets heavy, unless you get the technique right on its not going up.
I have a new appreciation for the snatch. I never liked it, but I'm pretty excited to hit them again. Only problem is I don't have an Olympic bar or bumper weights which makes it a little more difficult.

To true, I am spoiled on my bumpers and oly bar. I don't have the extra worry of dropping it. It is really a freedom.

30 Muscle-ups for time (proper with wrist turnout)

time 13:04

I missed 3reps and on rep 29 I didn't turnout, I dropped to full ext, but didn't turnout. I told myself it was ok, I went to full ext and I need one more rep. I got on the rings and said''no I'll do two reps'' and got the one I screwed up.

Scott thanks for the video, starting in the hand with wrist turned out was great.


Last time below.

[QUOTE=Nik Nichols;626568]30 Muscle-ups for time

34:30
last time was 36min.

But I had to jump the last 5 reps. I didn't miss the first 11, missed one rep. Then started missing reps at 17, struggeled to 25, missed 7in a row, I ended up with attempts that looked like pullups. My for arms are wrecked, hurt really really bad at the last five. sheer stupedity kept me going even in jumping. Still really sore.[/QUOTE]

Thanks Richard, I am chuffed!!!!

Doing it like Leon, starting with my wrist out threw me into a rythm, it all clicked and felt good. I did no less then 2reps. I miss a few trying for a third, but it really worked. I would drop down for another reps and hit the turnout right in rythm for the next one.


Oh great pic too!
