“Great works are performed not by strength but by perseverance” – Samuel Johnson

Snatch (10:00 EMOM
1 Snatch @ 80%+)



% of 1RM Snatch,

*Snatch can be Power or Squat

Goal: Build to 90%+

Stimulus: Speed Strength and Power

RPE: 7/10

*Building to a heavy, but should not be overly taxing today

Key focus areas:

Speed through the middle, strong finish and fast turnover into the catch. Really reinforce pulling under the bar and pressing up as you receive the bar in the catch. Move with intention and a strong midline as you stand out of the overhead squat.

Modifications:

We can adjust to a hang variation today and stick with Power Snatches in order to keep the overall technical and mobility needs limited.

Amanda (Time)

9-7-5 reps for time of:

Muscle-ups

Squat snatches

135lb/95lb
“Amanda” is a classic high-skill CrossFit benchmark that tests gymnastics proficiency, Olympic lifting technique, and composure under fatigue. The short rep scheme encourages athletes to move with urgency, but the technical demands of both movements require controlled execution. This is a workout where precision wins over reckless speed.

Goal: 4–8 minutes

Time Cap 12 minutes

Stimulus : High-skill gymnastics and barbell cycling under fatigue

RPE: 9/10

Focus : Maximize efficiency on muscle-ups, prioritize clean and confident lifts under fatigue

Key focus areas:

Stay composed on the rings—misses are costly

Maintain snatch technique under pressure

Control breathing and transitions to avoid redline mistakes
