Squat Snatch Practice...

3 squat snatches on the minute for 6 minutes - 75#

finished with 10 squat snatches - 95# (not for time)



Practice vs Training…


Just something to think about…a real simple explanation… When we train, we are working to create a measurable organic response in the body. Power, speed, stamina, strength…we train for those things.
When we practice, we are working to create a response in the nervous system. Accuracy, agility, coordination, and balance are all improved through practice, the repetitive stimulus creates the improvement in the neuromuscular firing that makes all that jazz work.
When we CrossFit, we’re both practicing and training. Neither is more important than the other, and both must be done in order to improve performance. You’ve got to practice in order to train…perfect example is the snatch. Practice the snatch to make it as smooth and strong and right as possible, then train with speed and a load.
