4 Sets: Building to Working Loads
Snatch + Low Hang Snatch + Hang Snatch
3 Back Squats
2 Seated Box Jumps to High Box
Rest 1:00 b/t sets
Start at 40-50% for both the Snatch and the Back Squat and increase loads to 70% over 4 Sets
20:00 EMOM
Minute 1: Snatch + Low Hang Snatch + Hang Snatch
Minute 2: 5-5-4-3-3 Back Squat
Minute 3: 3 Seated High Box Jumps
Minute 4: Rest
-Snatch Complex:
Starting @ 70% of 1RM Snatch and Building to a Heavy for the Day
– Back Squat
Starting @ 70% for the first set of 5 and increase loads every set in the range of 5-10% every set and ending at a heavy 3 for the day. The goal here would be to end knowing you had another 10lb in the tank and ended on a quality rep. Think Heavy 3 rep @ 9/10 RPE.
– Seated High Box Jump: Choice on Height. Goal is to get to a high box, but safely.
Score = Record heavy load of Snatch Complex and Back Squat (other weights and box height in notes)
Goal: Technical Heavies on the Snatch Complex and Back Squat triple for the Day
Stimulus: French Contrast Style Workout / Absolute Strength + Speed Strength + Plyo
RPE: 6/10
Primary Objective: Build to a heavy snatch complex and a heavy 3-rep back squat for the day. Both should represent a true strength ceiling for today, not looking for an all-time PR attempt, but the best load you can move with quality.
Secondary Objective: Maintain technical consistency in the snatch across all three positions as the load climbs. The low hang and hang positions should reinforce hip contact, vertical bar path, and full extension. They should start to be moving more towards squat snatches as the load increases.
Level 2:
– Power Snatch + Low Hang Power Snatch + Hang Power Snatch (power receiving throughout)
– Back Squat 5-5-4-3-3 – cap top end at 80% of 1RM, prioritize mechanics over load

– Back Squat 5 reps per set at light-to-moderate load OR 8 Goblet Squats

—
Masters 55+:
