Lifting Ourselves and One Another

A.  Hang Snatch/Snatch Balance – 1.2 x 6 sets, rest 90 seconds

B.  21, 15, 9 rep rounds for time of:

Thrusters

Knees to Elbows

Coach’s notes:  In Part A you are first doing a hang snatch for one rep.  When you come out of the bottom (from a full squat), stand up to full extension, lower the bar to your back and then with a shallow dip of the knees drive yourself down into a full squat.  Stand and repeat for a second rep (snatch balance x 2).  This is one set.  Increase load if appropriate and complete 6 sets.  In Part B, guys use 65 lbs and gals 45 lbs for thrusters.  Attempt to complete this WOD unbroken and fast.  Post time to complete to comments.

B.7:55 missing K to E makes this way worse

Went to CFC exhausted from 5 days of morning till night packing, moving and unpacking, very little sleep and bad food choices. Not a great way to enter a WOD!
A: took it easy and did multiple sets at various weights up to 27#. Wasn’t trying to go heavy on these but rather work on form and speed.

Thanks a lot Brett!
