Travis snatch |
Monday December 13 2010
- Warm-up series - 2 snatch long pull + 2 snatch push press + 2 overhead squats - 4 sets
- Power snatch + OHS + snatch (2 sec pause in bottom) - 5 sets
- Push press + jerk behind neck + jerk (5 sec hold in split) - 5 sets
- Jerk dip squat - 5 x 3
3 sets; no rest:
A1. Weighted back extension x 10
A2. Weighted planks - front/side x 10 sec hold
Week 1 of 11
Weights this week should be a challenge, but definitely not maximal for any of the sets. Jerk dip squat should be around 80-100% of your best jerk. Position must be perfect.

Do we link the individual lifts consecutively in each set, as in the warmup? If so, are your athletes using 1 weight for each set, or are they changing weights for each individual exercise within the set?
Thanks

I dig the warm up series! I did a mixed series on Friday night with 65 pounds, followed by the snatch and c&j (60% to 100% of past max). I think some of them need more weight, like the jerk series (Push press + jerk behind neck + jerk) would be better with 95, just because that move feels better with something pushing back. But I like the range of motion and continuity of these barbell complexes. I saw more technical weaknesses with the complexes than with the classic lifts. |

If I understand your question correctly, yes, those are complexes. E.g. on the first one, you would do 1 power snatch, keep the bar overhead and do 1 OHS, lower the bar to the floor and do 1 snatch; that would constitute one set. So you would use a single weight. |

The weight is up to you. With that complex, you should certainly be able to go heavier than with one involving a Sots press, for example. When I say light, I'm not referring to any specific numbers. In some cases, like the one you point out, 95 lbs is very light. |

Thanks for the clarification on the complexes.
Also, can the Performance Menu be given as a gift or does the end user have to set up an account?
Thanks
