OPT Aug 2

A. behind the neck jerk - singles on the minute - add till -10-15% of 1RM
(no more than 5 tough sets)
B. power snatch x 1/snatch balance x 1/OHS x 1 - 80% effort; rest 90 sec x 4
C. on the minute for 8 min:
3 clean and jerk - 185/135#
6 KBS - 88#/55#
RESULTS:
A. 145# 150# 160# 170# 180# 190#(f)
Haven't ever done rack jerks so I had no idea where to start. Minutes started to come up quickly so failed 190#
B. All sets @ 105# The weight flew after part A
C. Sets 1 & 2 @135#, failed minutes 3 & 4 so dropped the weight to 125# for sets 5 & 6, failed set 7, set 8 @ 125#
All kbs@ 53#
Part C was extremely tough for me, mentally and physically. I had barely any time to rest, so it became continuous and I couldn't hang on for very long before failing. Sunday, June 26, 2011
Sunday Snatches!
I feel fantastic. Today, I feel strong, light, and powerful. I was able to do pretty well on my power snatches (a good amount of weight, my form is still gross), and I was able to power through a Metcon more quickly than I thought.
TRAINING:
A. Power Snatch - take up to a perfect form tough double; rest as needed
+
for time:
10 power snatch - 65#
20 burpees
10 power snatch - 65#
20 burpees
10 power snatch - 65#
RESULTS:
A. Worked up to 110# (x 2) although it was not great form. I pressed out the second rep. I got two sets of two @ 110# so I feel good about it. I need to really work on my form, I am just lucky to be strong but my form is clearly the limiting factor and could use a lot of work and that will help my #'s go up a ton. I see my set up isn't too great and I raise my butt way too early.
+ 4:24
I felt great during the work out. I flew through the power snatches and got through all the burpees at one consistent pace. I was shooting for around 5 minutes, so I did a lot better than I thought.

Back To Training
TRAINING:
Part 1:
A1. Power Snatch - 2-3 x 3; rest 20 sec
A2. Max Vertical Jump - 2-3 x 3; rest 4 min
(10 sec b/t attempts)
B. Power Snatch x 1/Snatch Balance x 2/OHS x 3; rest 2 min x 3
C1. KBS heavy x 6; rest 10 sec
C2. Knee Tucks - 6 rebounding tucks; rest 2 min x 3
rest 6+ hours
Part 2:
5 sets @ 97%:
10 hang squat clean - 95#/65#
10 burpees
10 chin ups
10 burpees
35 double unders
rest only through breathing; no activity 5 min b/t sets
RESULTS:
Part 1:
A1. 105# (x3), 110# (x3), 115# (x1) failed 2 and 3
A2: done
B. All sets at 115#
C1: all sets w/ 2 pood
C2: done
I'm excited to finally power snatch 115#! I couldn't even squat snatch 115# a few months ago. I have eliminated my early arm bend in my snatch and clean, but now I need to work on the bar position in both. The bar is always too far in front of me, so I end up jumping a few inches forward during the lift in order to "chase" the bar. In my snatch I also hit the bar off my thighs, and I need to work on bringing the bar back into my hips and us the power from my hip pocket rather than my thigh area.
Part 2:
I decided to do 11.4 as my second work out of the day. It may not have been the smartest idea considering I did heavy squat snatches yesterday, and snatch/ohs work this morning. I killed myself earlier this morning during the am training but I decided that sometimes I have "bad muscle-up days" and I did not want to have a bad day on Saturday and have it be my only shot, so I tried 11.4 today, and plan to re-do it Saturday.
11.4
AMRAP 10 min
-60 burpees (facing the bar, jump over)
-30 OHS @ 90#
-10 Muscle-Ups
I finished all the burpees and OHS but failed my MU. I was irritated that I didn't get my muscle up so I retried it 5 minutes later and was able to do one. My plan for Saturday is to move faster during the burpees and OHS so I will hopefully have more time to rest before I attempt (and hopefully get) a muscle up, but we'll see what happens!

OPT Training: Complex, Dips, Pull-ups
TRAINING:
5 sets:
Power Snatch x 1
Snatch Balance x 2
OHS x 3
Hang Squat Snatch x 2
rest 3 min - weight must go up per set
+
Dips - 2-3 wtd; rest 20 sec
Chin Ups - 2-3 wtd; rest 3 min x 3
(wtd = weighted; last set toughest set)
Results:
"Complex":
1. 85#
2. 90#
3. 95#
4. 105# (Fail on Hang Squat Snatch)
5. 105# (Fail on Hang Squat Snatch)
+
1. Dips @ 20# x3, Pull-ups @ 20# x3
2. Dips @ 25# x3, Pull-ups @ 25# x3
3. Dips @ 30# x3, Pull-ups @ 30# x2
My Snatch Balance and OHS felt great, but as the weight increases my squat snatch balance is unsuccessful because of poor bar placement. I feel like I am quick to get under the bar, but my grip is not wide enough, and the bar is too far out in front of me to catch it in a stable position at the bottom of the snatch. I also need to practice the "hook-grip". I hate it, it feels super uncomfortable, but in my first attempt at 105# the hook-grip would have been beneficial because the weight felt like it was "slipping" out of my hand (slipping from lack of strength, I had chalk on my hands).

1st Round of the open
AMRAP 10 min
-30 Double Unders
-15 Power snatches at 55#
I completed 6 rounds, exactly the score I was hoping for. I felt awful during the work out; my heart rate was very high, and my stomach was in knots. I need to place well in each work out of the open in order to move onto regionals. Sunday night is the deadline to submit scores for work out #1 so this is when I will be able to see how I did overall.
