Greg-
I see a lot of Snatch Balences in the CA WOD, but I hardly ever see any Overhead Squats. Whats the reason for this? |

Jason -
I usually alternate between snatch balances and overhead squats in the burgener style. But I find snatch balances more valuable for a number of reasons, such as the speed, timing and aggression needed for the sn bal that's absent in the OHS. |

Sn:195 (miss two early on because of lack of respect for weight)
C&J:243 (no misses, pretty easy)
BS:315 (no belt, deep as possible) would have gone up but I was volated by the guy spotting me. He was way to close...
Ab Wheel:
1.)1x15 (standing start)
2.)1x11 (standing) +4 on knees
3.)1x7 (standing, abs are shaking) +8 on knees.

Snatch - 98kg (215lb)
C&J - 102kg (225lb), felt like blacking out after recovering from the clean. Shoulders are not feeling 100%
BS - 184kg (405lb), felt sloppy. Not happy with it, but it is the heaviest I have gone in a while
No ab wheel, therefore, sub'd GHD sit-ups 3x15 |

Didn't make the gym today due to a massive snow storm. Greg, do you suggest doing today's workout tomorrow or just getting back into the swing of things on Monday? |

Greg.....for future reference, what is the answer to Toms Question. When we do miss, is it better to make it up, miss it completly or do the Heavy workout and miss another day?
Thanks in Advance |

Ted -
Kind of depends on a few things. In his case, I would say skip it and jump back in on Monday. Were it the last week of this 4wk mesocycle, I would have told him to do Saturday's workout on Sunday. |
