Monday, June 6 'Snatch Balance'

The Snatch Balance is a great exercise. Combine it with "The Burgener Warm-up" and you are getting some solid practice for later full snatches. Progression exercises grease the gears, allowing us to feel certain phases of each movement better, and controlling each phase of each movement, hitting the cues we talk about.

T- 115

Super strong lift John. Great job. Several people turned this into a practice session, focusing on form instead of loading anything. Form, consistency, intensity. Good practice guys. Good job getting under that bar! Really good job of creating a nice, stable shelf for that bar to rest over.

The O'course received mixed reviews, but was an overall winner. If you have any ideas on any future O'course additions, let us know. You will see more of them. Outstanding job for the "Viking" training recruits too.

Tuesday is a rest day. Take a little time and do something that feels good and helps you recover. We have three weeks to continue prepping for The Barbarian, so, find a hill. Run up and walk it down as many times possible in twenty minutes. For extra kicks, perform one burpee each time you stop running on the way up.

Thanks for another great day of training and conditioning at CFSF.

Character. We recognize it when we see it. CrossFit builds it.
