Athlete Training Notes
For today’s workout we’ll be looking to maximize our time at the final barbell. To do so the best strategy is going to be hitting all sets of toes to bar in 1-2 sets. For the snatches we think that quick singles are going to be the ticket but every athlete is different so try something out and let us know what you went with. At the end of the day if you get to that last barbell but you can’t hit it consistently then you probably went a little too hot. A good goal is to get to that barbell with about 2-3 minutes on the clock and then let it rip from there. If the prescribed numbers are outside your abilities then follow the percentage modifications. This workout is very similar to one that we hit recently and since CrossFit likes hitting ladder style workouts we figure it’s a good time to knock out another one!
