Video courtesy of CrossFit Trajectory. Our second run of our Snatch Complex this cycle. As mentioned last time, we are working on continued stability in the OH position through an OHS, but we include the Snatch Balance to this complex. The addition of the Snatch Balance will help us get more efficient at getting under the bar FAST and still maintaining good position and control. Why is this important? The better we get with this, the better our Squat Snatch will get. The path a bar has to travel in a Squat Snatch is much shorter than the path in a Power Snatch. The shorter path should allow for us to handle heavier loads in a Squat Snatch rather than a Power Snatch. %s go up this week, so stay tight!
