Isabel...

Another tough, tough lady. Isabel looks like this...

Isabel
30 reps snatch
w-85

Last time we hit this, I used an RX'd weight, but I wasn't comfortable pulling from the floor. Today, I went from the floor. I could only pull 75, and even some of these weren't very pretty. It's hard for me to pull from the floor for some reason. I lose that ever important shrug and second pull. I bend my arms early on cleans, and bend my arms on snatches. So, working from the floor is very important for me in terms of my continued development with CF. I don't think I did horribly today, but there is def room for improvement on my pull from the floor. But, even with the added effort of pulling from the floor, I still managed to knock over three minutes off my time. So, something positive to think about.

More work on the pull from the floor is coming...

At least you didn't pull from the floor and then have to land in a squat like Chris made us do in the evening!

That's the true way to do a snatch though. I was trying to land low, but I know I was high. It takes a lot of getting used to.
