Monday, December 8, 2008

Sunday KB snatch 50@44# 5/side

Monday KB C+P ladder to 5@62#

One pushup!

Chris said...: Can you explain "50@44# 5/side"? Does that mean 50 rounds of 5 snatches/side? Also, do you do KB snatches from the swing or from the ground?; December 9, 2008 at 8:37 AM
Sam Crish said...: 50 continuous snatches switching hands every 5 reps.

I do them from the hang but more of a straight up snatch rather than the RKC straight-arm swing snatch.; December 9, 2008 at 9:35 AM
Sam Crish said...: Oh also I am doing 100 days of pushups starting to day so I added one pushup to my wo!; December 9, 2008 at 9:35 AM
