*Coach’s Notes:
Both options for Part A share a focus on overhead stability. If you’ve been following along with our Snatch progressions, use today to find a 1-RM Hang Snatch. If you’d prefer to keep things less explosive, and build that scapular endurance, go with the “Fitness” protocol
For Parts B, C, and D, maintain a hard but steady pace for the entire 5-minute intervals. “Fitness” has a Dumbbell Hang Clean + Push Press prescribed in B — these will be with two Dumbbells, and should be performed at a weight that will allow you to keep your chest up through power clean portion of the movement, and can “ideally” be done unbroken throughout. For “Performance,” the Barbell Ground to Overhead can be a Snatch or Clean & Jerk (your choice).
Substitute for the Pistol is written as a Cossack Squat, but feel free to get creative here in order to keep things challenging, but fluid!
