Post time to comments.
Scaling:
Today’s workout is a shorter effort and twist on the benchmark workout Amanda. This variation highlights the gymnastics element of the workout and challenges your skill set. Don’t let the lower volume fool you — this workout packs a punch. The load of the barbell should allow you to complete the set of 9 in 1:30 or less.
If you have strict muscle-ups, but you are limited by the volume, consider reducing the reps to 5-4-3 or 3-2-1. If you do not yet have a strict ring muscle-up, perform low-ring muscle-up transitions. You can increase or decrease the difficulty of these by moving your feet forward or backward of the rings.
Intermediate option:
3-2-1 reps for time of:
Strict ring muscle-ups
9-7-5
Squat snatches
♀ 65 lb
♂ 95 lb
Beginner option:
9-7-5 reps for time of:
Low-ring muscle-up transitions
Hang power snatch + overhead squat
♀ 35 lb
♂ 45 lb

Scaling:
The goal today is to build confidence in the snatch.
Every minute starts with a snatch pull to practice:
- A solid setup position.
- Hips and shoulders rising at the same time.
- Reaching full hip and knee extension before shrugging.
In minutes 1-5, concentrate on full hip extension. We are receiving the barbell high in the power snatch position (as opposed to the squat snatch), and then practicing a deeper receiving position with the overhead squat. The goal is for the skills of this complex to transfer over to the later minutes in this workout.
In minutes 6-10, start from the low hang and try to receive the bar in a squat. We may add a little weight, but stick to the same weight for the full 5 minutes; the opportunity to increase weight will come in the next 10 minutes. Focus on being patient, keeping the chest/shoulders on top of the bar, and jumping before using the arms to pull under.
In minutes 11-20, snatch from the floor. Focus on a sound setup position, and hips and shoulders rising at the same time before accelerating and extending the hips when the bar reaches mid-thigh — patience will be necessary to stay over the bar to reach this position. All the coaching points and practice from the previous work comes together to finish with a full squat snatch.
If you’re moving well, add weight through the last 10 minutes, but the goal is to have no missed lifts. Do not sacrifice form for load.
