Connecting the bottom to the top

Here’s another opportunity to drill different parts of a complex movement.  The snatch pulls and hang power snatches will meet in the middle, the common element being the second pull (when the bar is at the hang until the hips open).  The violent hip closing of the sit ups in today’s WOD is sure to make us quite aware of our core and will be a good reminder to keep it tight during the hang power snatches they are coupled with.

STR:

Snatch pulls
3-3-3-3-3

WOD:

21-15-9
hang power snatch (95/65)
42-30-18
sit ups

 

Hey CFSV Urban Aggies! Here’s another opportunity for you to get involved in local urban agriculture projects. Higher Ground Farm is a 55,000 square foot farm located on the roof of One Design Center in South Boston. On Saturday, June 14th, starting at 9am, they need a crew of 10 people to haul a couple of hundred milkcrates filled with soil from the first floor to the 11th floor roof. For those who want to work harder, you can climb the whole way, for everyone else, the freight elevator is an option for at least 8 of those floors. For more information and/or to sign up, people can contact Joanna Vanden at joannavanden@gmail.com.

    SP: 95#
    WOD: 7:03? with 45# – these drill days aren’t necessarily fun, but they sure are great for learning better movement patterns for when the bar gets heavy. As the break for 7:30 said: SnatchTastic!
