DESCRIPTION

These Snatch Waves also take place on a running clock

Every minute starting at 8:00, you’ll complete 1 Squat Snatch

We are building on last week’s percentages

“Waves” mean that the percentages will increase for 3 sets, then slightly decrease before climbing even higher

Wave loadings like this are designed to excite your motor neurons, which can help enhance force production despite muscular fatigue

Essentially – they help you move heavy loads even when you’re tired

These percentages are also based on your 1RM Squat Snatch

Back Squat

Stamina Squats

On the 1:30 x 7 Sets:

2 Front Squat

4 Back Squats

Barbell Loaded at 65% 1RM Front Squat

STIMULUS

DESCRIPTION

“”Nasty Girls”” is an old school CrossFit Benchmark workout that balances weightlifting and gymnastics

Times for this workout range from about 6-12 minutes (2-4 minute rounds)

Choose weights and variations that allow you to complete the work within that time frame

RING MUSCLE-UPS

Within the workout, this should be a station you can clear in 1:30 or less

Adjust reps or choose from another variation listed in “subs” to match that recommendation

HANG POWER CLEANS

Looking to move a barbell that is on the lighter side of moderate

When you’re fresh, this is a weight you could complete for 21+ reps unbroken

Within the workout, the 10 reps are ideally completed within 1-2 sets

STRATEGY

AIR SQUATS

Determine your speed on the air squats based on how comfortable you are with the ring muscle-ups

The more confident you are on the rings, the faster you can cycle these squats

If you know you’re going to take a few breaks on the rings, slow down your cycle time to make sure your breathing is under control for the more challenging movements

RING MUSCLE-UPS & HANG POWER CLEANS

Having good self awareness of your abilities on each of these movements will help you determine the best strategy

Envision what you can realistically hold for sets in round 3 of the workout and do that from the beginning

Especially on the muscle-ups, it’s better to be conservative early and speed up later than it is to start hot and gradually slow down

Breaks tend to be a lot shorter when they are pre-determined as opposed to unplanned

Keep in mind there will be some interference between the two movements – as both involve an upper body pull

Consider the following sets for ring muscle-ups:

1 Set: 7

2 Sets: 4-3

3 Sets: 3-2-2

4 Sets: 2-2-2-1

Consider the following sets for hang power cleans:

1 Set: 10

2 Sets: 5-5

3 Sets: 4-3-3
