The snatch is easily my favourite movement.
It takes speed, power, strength, mobility, balance and a bit of good ol’ fashioned courage.
Simply put, it’s fucking rad.
For the last few weeks, Monday has typically been snatch day, however I fear I may have gone a little overboard yesterday as my left shoulder is aching like crazy!
Forced rest day today.
Lesson learned.

Squat snatch 60kg
Fucked up my first set of snatches completely (did 3 then had 2 misses and then did all singles) but kept all other sets unbroken
Time was 4:44 but I think I can pretty comfortably get that to below 4 next time.

The HSPU after so many snatches and 30 S2OH were fucked. I had to do the last two reps as singles and I love handstands.
Brutal day, but heaps of fun!
