20120101 – 07h00 – The 2012 snatch challenge

/ Old Workout Logs/ 0 comments

A while ago I mentioned to @SteveCotterIKFF that we had attempted the 1001 snatches without a hand change, using 12kg(men) and 10kg(ladies). I thought it was pretty good going …
Steve said…”That doesn’t make sense…why didn’t you do 2002 – 1001 on each hand? In fact 2012 makes more sense!”

So, todays workout/challenge…
Snatches 2012 reps with 1 hand change ie. ~1006 per hand if you do the hand switch at the halfway mark.

Men:12kg
Ladies:8kg
Do NOT put down. You may rest in the OVERHEAD position only.

We started out at 19rpm…but it was too fast, so we aborted the set after 13mins (247reps), rested for a few minutes and restarted (from scratch/0) at 17rpm. At the end, we threw in about 100 extra reps, just to be sure 🙂

Thank you to @SteveCotterIKFF for the inspiration to undertake this challenge.
2012 snatches with ONE hand change. 2012 is gonna be a GOOOOD year.
