Snatch
Classic Barbell Gymnastics
1) Snatch Practice: 10 snatches, perform 1 rep every 60-90 seconds, slowly building up to a challenging weight. Then, every 30 seconds, 8 lighter Snatches alternating power and full squat.
2) Clean & Jerk Practice: 10 Clean and Jerks, perform 1 rep every 60-90 seconds, slowly building up to at least 3 challenging reps. Then every 30 seconds, 8 lighter Clean & Jerks alternating power and full squat.
Notes: For those athletes newer to these movements, remember that the priority is good technique using the hips and patiently hitting each position. If pulling from the floor is difficult to maintain technique, use the hang variation that allows quality reps.
Advanced Barbell Gymnastics
1) Snatch: 5X1 @ 80%, 3X1 @ 90%, 2X1 @ 95%, 8X1 @ 70% – rest 60-90 sec. between each rep through sets of 90%, then 30 sec. between each rep at 70%, reps @ 70% should be alternating between Power and full Squat
2) Clean & Jerk: 5X1 @ 80%, 3X1 @ 90%, 2X1 @ 95%, 8X1 @ 70% – rest 60-90 sec. between each rep through sets of 90%, then 30 sec. between each rep at 70%, reps @ 70% should be alternating between Power and full Squat

Thank you all for the kind words and support as we have finally opened the doors of Paradiso CrossFit Venice! While I am excited, I must confess that the primary feeling I have is not one of relaxation or completion, but a responsibility to continue moving forward!
Lets keep working together to change our country and community:
