Training 2/22/12 Heavy KB Snatches!

Sleep: In bed soon after 7p, but awake until close til 9p.  Frustrating, but energy during day is not bad. Barely touch the travel coffee mug I have in the morning.

9 AM

as many round/reps in 10 min:

4 HSPU

5 KB Snatch - 1.5 pd

5 KB snatch - 1.5 pd

6 CTB chin ups

5 Rnds + 11 reps 

I have never snatched more than a 35# KB and I have previously strongly disliked this movement.  The only workout that I ever remember quitting was a workout with 35# KB snatches at my gym summer of 2010.  I told James that I gained new found respect for my ability to KB snatch the 52lber/1.5 pood after this workout.  I didn't even bruise on my forearms as I have with past KB snatch workouts.  With that said...my technique is not great so it can only get better! 

12:30PM
