Work Hard, Rinse and Repeat

Last night's workout for the class was a repeat of what I did Monday morning. Most everyone had a good workout doing it, although I'm sure they'll be a little sore today. Also, I did have to take some time to demonstrate to everyone how to do the snatches correctly. I expected this to take some time, so it wasn't a surprise. One key component that I kept going back to was "pulling yourself under the weight" instead of simply lifting with the arms. Focusing on that cue helped everyone do more of a snatch instead of a muscle snatch.

This morning's workout included more weight lifting type exercises. I wanted to focus on the complete body during lifting, so I had us do the following WOD.

As Many Rounds As Possible (AMRAP) in 10 Minutes of:
7 Thrusters
10 Ab Mat Situps

Using 50#'s, I managed to get 9 rounds + 5 thrusters. I really wanted 10 rounds, but I guess I'll have to dial up the pace next time to get it.
