Testing the technical

Nick | 08/28/2014 | 2

I’m back!  …and it feels so good.Yesterday I saw a lot of great work on building stable shoulders in our ring support and supple shoulders with our kips and pass throughs.  We’re going to need both today as we test our 1 rep max snatch (keep in mind, the “squat” is implied…).  We’ve been building up to this for several weeks starting with the snatch grip behind the neck push press and building in complexity until we find ourselves here, with the full snatch.  Build as much tension as you can in your setup, keep that chest up and stay connected to the bar as you pull yourself underneath it.  There’s aren’t many things as beautiful as a well executed snatch… (see link below)
