3-position Snatch

A little pre-race color for the cheerleaders!
 
15 minutes to establish a max 3-position Snatch [DEMO VIDEO]
 
Perform a snatch from 3 different starting positions consecutively. The positions and order can be changed depending on the needs of the athlete and the training objectives. Most common would be floor, hang and mid-hang. For technically proficient athletes, start low and work high to increase fatigue and limit the distance and time available to accelerate the bar in order to improve second pull power. For athletes learning technique, start high where the athlete will be more comfortable and work low to add in more complexity. Coach will determine the best order for each athlete.
 
Then

Start getting prepared NOW for the Whole Life challenge! It's better to get rid of the foods you can't have BEFORE the start of the challenge instead of after! Also make sure you have snacks on hand for Saturday because the first few days of the challenge, if you've never done it before, you will be super hungry and struggling to adjust. But once you get adjusted, it's a piece of cake...haha...no pun intended! :)
