Olympic Lifting Class:
Lots and lots of snatches
CrossFit Class:
Warmup: Standard warmup
Group WOD: 3 Attempts at 1RM Snatch, followed by 3 Attempts at 1RM C&J
Also had a good group for the 12:30 foundations class from the Living Social promotion. We did some back squats, and they all mentioned “we know this won’t make us bulk up, but we still worry about it”, so we went into the office and looked at one of our posters we had in there, where I pointed out this picture:
This lady weighs roughly 104 lbs or so in the picture, and has 160 lbs over her head at the bottom of a snatch. That’s an insanely hard thing to do for a 200lb guy, let alone a 104lb lady.
Now, if anyone thinks she’s “bulky”, and wouldn’t want to look like her, well…
she smiles like Amy does during WOD’s…
You’re right Matt! I think I do want to look like her. Or maybe I just want her 1 1/2 body weight snatch.
