Today's Group Class

I had 4 new "victims" today for the 11:00 am group class. We covered swings, getups, clean and presses for the first 20 minutes. We then did a short strength workout consisting of three Clean Press ladders with slingshots, figure-eights and figure eights w/hold for active rest. For the ballistics/quick-lifts one of the victims Angela, rolled the dice and came up with a 3 so we did three minutes of swings.

I was going to end the workout there but conversation lead to them asking to be taught the kettlebell snatch. I showed them the RKC snatch test and demonstrated 28 snatches with one arm using the 24kg KB... then had them drill some high swings, high pulls and finally a few snatches. I showed them the half snatch a devised a brief half-snatch / VO2 max style workout. They loved it. Some witnesses were asking questions and very interested in the workout and I noticed a few more people had signed up for classes up stairs.
