CrossFit Goliath – CrossFit
Snatch
Every 2min. x 10 Rounds:
10 Pull-Ups
Max Hang Power Snatch
Round 1 and 2: 50% effort (Shoot for 4-5 reps)
Round 3 and 4: 60% effort (Shoot for 3-4 reps)
Round 5 and 6: 70% effort (Shoot for 2-3 reps)

Round 9 and 10: 90% effort (Shoot for 1-2 reps)
A FEW KEY POINTS:
1.) FORM is important today. If you can’t lift the heavier numbers with clean technique, then stay at 4-5 reps the whole time.
2.) Effort is how you feel TODAY, not your all time best
3.) The Pull-Ups should be easy, so if you have to start breaking just cut it to 7.
Metcon (AMRAP – Reps)
4 Rounds:
Min. 1) Max American KB Swings 53/35
Min. 2) Max Burpee Box Jumps 24/20″
Min. 3) Rest
This NEEDS to be an “all out” effort to really hit that stimulus. It’s also going to be a lot harder than you think, so be ready for the pain-cave. Go hard on the first round and figure out what’s possible for you as far as reps go. Try not to fall off too much, or fall in general! Staying within 3 reps on each movement for each round is the goal! That doesn’t mean SANDBAG the first round to keep it easy!
