Snatch Wave Workout

Another quick and effective workout. All kettlebell snatches this time. I used one snatch test size bell (16k), one below (12k), and one above (20k).  I would recommend using something you're comfortable with for the "snatch test size bell" and then one above and below.  This is what I did:

Snatch Wave
12k - 10R, 10L
16k - 10R, 10L
20k - 10R, 10L
16k - 10R, 10L
12k - 10R, 10L
16k - 10R, 10L
20k - 10R, 10L
16k - 10R, 10L
12k - 10R, 10L
16k - 10R, 10L
for 200 total snatches

Then take your lightest bell and perform a 5 minute snatch test with that.  I got 110 in 5 minutes.

Between the different sized snatches in the Snatch Wave section, rest as much as you feel like you need to. I wasn't in a huge rush. The 200 snatches took me about 18min. It was fun to groove with the 12k and 16k and then really focus with the 20k- something I don't often snatch.  

Let me know how it goes for you!


ps- I have been doing my TGU's and they're getting better! I don't LOVE them yet, but I'm building a better appreciation for what they do for my body.  The day after that first TGU workout I posted, my arms felt like noodles. Very strong and capable noodles, but noodles just the same. I like that =)  

How are you doing with your TGUs?
