3 Snatch Push Press
3 Overhead Squats
3 Snatch Balance
2. Strength Prep
After the warm-up, instruct athletes to work up to a lightweight that they will use for 2 reps every 60 seconds for 5 sets (5 minutes). The purpose is to build strength and confidence in the overhead position of the receiving part of a snatch. Athletes will take the bars from the rig, but they should step back far enough so that they won’t drop the bar into the rig if they miss the lift. Demo the correct way to bail from a snatch balance both forward and backward. If athletes cannot get into an overhead squat position due to mobility restrictions, you should have them push press + push jerk from the back rack position. Athletes should stay the same weight across all 5 sets.

STIMULUS and GOALS
The stimulus for today’s workout is moderately high intensity with a “push pace”. Move with a purpose and attack the sandbag cleans on every rep! High skill and heavyweight, so make sure athletes are explosive and not rushing their reps.
Remember to have athletes select the appropriate skill level for each movement that will allow them to maintain intensity throughout the entire workout.
