Admiral Ackbar

Just as we did on Monday with a cleans, we'll work on the snatch during Wednesday classes by using a simple and effective complex that should sound familiar.  The loading for the met-con may also sound familiar for those who did last Thursday's double under/muscle-up/power snatch triplet -- we'll layer in some complexity by full (or "squat") snatching the barbell from the floor this time.

To paraphrase Pat Sherwood "any workout with 115 on the bar is a trap."  But this one is just two short and sweet pieces, so how bad could it really be?
