Incredible numbers were put up on the CrossFit Total.  A big cheer for John L, health who broke the 1000 pound barrier 345/187/470.  Not close behind were strong men Matt, Nick G and Big Man Bob.  Melissa and Anna each put up near 700# totals with tons of PRs thrown in.  Rachelle had a 135# PR on her deadlift and at least 30# PR on the press. Anna, Joe, Sara H, Sarah L, Alexis and John each PR’ed every single lift, and of course, the Total.  That’s 24 PR’s among just 6 athletes.  Incredible!

A huge shout out to Coach Lou that has put together a strength plan that is both fun and extremely effective.

Workout of the Day

Strength/Skill

4 sets of the Complex

2 Power Snatch

2 Hang Snatch

2 Overhead Squat

Every attempt should be made to hang onto the bar.  But if you drop it, just pick it up and complete the set.  I would say 2 minutes rest between sets, and these are meant to be heavy across, so you may need 10 minutes to get warmed up.  For the warm up, 1 recommend a Power Snatch, a Hang Snatch, and an OHS.

The Hang Snatch portion is you choice – you can start from whichever position you choose – high to low hang, even below the knee if you need to work on that position.  You  may receive in an OHS, or do Hang Power Snatch.
