Thursday, January 20 'Snatch'

If you take a big pot and throw in deadlifts, hi pulls, and overhead squats, mix them all up you'd have a snatch. The grandaddy of all movements, the snatch is both functional and beautiful. However, lots of practice is required to get the subtle qualities and cues necessary to get dialed in.

Super strong session Madman! Nice weight, great snatch. Way to tough it out. John- cues, mobillity, and tenacity are what came together for you to allow you to get that PR. Great job. Great job EVERYONE! The snatch is an advanced movement, and we are SNATCHING! It took a lot of work from all of us to get to where we are now.

We had something happen last night that I have been waiting since June to occur. Finally someone from inside the karate dojo heard something going on, opened up the shared locker room door and saw CF. He was like a kid in a candy store. He hung around for a while, exploring. When he picked up a kettlebell and started swinging it, I thought to myself, "He'll be back. Guaranteed." That is one of the coolest things about CrossFit, seeing the excitement it brings to the newbies.

Thanks for the wicked good efforts. Thanks again for the good times too. You make CFSF what it is.
