PMenu WOD, Day 4, Week 1, Bulgarian 2
Warm-up:
back squat (low-bar & high-bar; to 2x2x225#)
power snatch (to 2x85, 1x95)
Performance Menu WOD 111408
4x1x80% power snatch (105#)
2x(1x70%-1x80%) clean & jerk ([135,150])
3 rounds for time:
500 m row
10 cross-chops (45# plate)
2x1 (per arm) TGU + windmill (20kg KB)
Power snatches just sucked, no pop among other problems (second rep felt the best). Video shows that my ankles start extending immediately after the barbell passes my knees. This seems totally wrong, as I'm on my toes during the knee rebend (which seems exaggerated, but I've never thought about it intentionally). In this video Everett doesn't start extending his ankles until the barbell is near his hip, which seems correctly timed to maximize power. Not sure how to fix this?!? I also seem to be jumping backwards a fair bit.
Ended up mangling the jerks by trying to shorten the dip. Maybe I should just keep it the same for now?
