Today we’re using a heavier medicine ball than we typically see on the wall ball and mixing in weighted runs. Select a weight outside your comfort zone and tackle this grueling workout. Beginners should reduce the overall volume.

Every minute on the minute for 20 minutes:
Minutes 1-5, use a light weight to complete:
1 snatch pull
1 hang power snatch
1 overhead squat
Minutes 6-10, use a light weight to complete:
1 snatch pull
1 low-hang snatch
Minutes 11-20, increase the load if movement is sound and complete:
1 snatch pull
1 squat snatch
Post takeaways and loads to comments.
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.

800/1,000-meter standing bike
*Rest 2 minutes between efforts.

Scaling:
Today’s intervals are all-out sprints on the bike with a twist — you will stand as you pedal. Expect this to add some spice to the workout. Use any stationary bike you have available (e.g., Echo bike, Assault bike, airdyne bike). Each round should be maximal effort. This means each set should occupy every ounce of your capacity, both mental and physical. As long as you are pushing these physical and psychological tolerances then you are hitting this workout as intended. Following each set, rest 2 minutes before the next attempt.
