ADJUSTING
*Reps, Loading, Volume*…
Power Snatch -- While this weight is moderate, we are looking for athletes to work on quick singles or doubles throughout.
That being said, this should be a weight athletes can hold onto for 3-5 reps unbroken if they had to. We can adjust the
weight to something that is challenging, but not even close to 1RM every time they pick it up.
Bar Muscle Up -- This is meant to be the focus for today- we can adjust the volume if we have some athletes that are not
yet proficient with BMU, cutting the reps to 9-7-5-3, or even 6-5-4-3 if needed today to manage overall volume!
*Movement Adjustments*...
Power Snatch -- If we have any athletes who are unable to go overhead today, we can sub a Power Clean (option to make
the weight slightly heavier to maintain stimulus)!
Bar Muscle Up -- If we have any athletes unable to perform BMU yet, our 2 movement options are: Jumping Bar
Muscle-Ups or Burpee Pull-Ups. If an athlete is unable to hang from the bar at all today, we can sub 5-7 Feet Elevated Ring
Rows and 5-7 Push-Ups.
