This session looked sketchy on the board, which almost reassured me, however upon starting the workout things went really well. Felt good about the squat snatch, when it's clicking- it clicks nicely. How did you feel about the session? Did any one exercise gas you? Combination of the three? How about your snatch- are you getting more comfortable with it?

Great session Dustin! This was a monster session, at prescription- brutal. 95 pound squat snatch, ring dip, then K2E? Wheeew. We had one person get the squat snatch as prescribed, a few people got the ring dips, but nobody got the whole thing as prescribed. Another part of CFSF that is great- scalable to everyone's level of conditioning.
We had a visit from Travis, and Jason, a couple of good guys in town training at McClellan. Welcome to CFSF. Our gym is your gym.
If you had difficulty with the squat snatch, get some overhead squatting practice, as well as power snatch, then hang squat snatch. When each movement is more comfortable, begin practicing the squat snatch. This is another area that flexibility can improve tremendously. Tight hams? Good luck getting low without compromising that good lumbar curve. Tight shoulders? Bad recipe for anything overhead. Remember that the more flexible we are the better these positions will be. Bad platform- bad lift, good platform- much better chance for a good lift. That simple.
Thanks for the great efforts today. Good fuel. Standby for Thursday. This Friday is the last Friday of the month. We are going to have fun after the night sessions, so come by CFSF and enjoy.
