VO2 Max


  It was never about the first 40 sets or 280 snatches. It was always about the last 20 sets or 140 snatches. Are you gripping the bell too tight? Are you pulling with your back instead of driving thru our heels? It the bell landing on top with a nice packed shoulder or are you getting yanked around. These things are not detectable only doing a few snatches. but, do 560 snatches and your form/technique speaks volumes. I have a generalized ache this morning after doing the 80 sets with the 16 kg bell. Nothing too big. I feel generally tight or packed. Feels good. Next time I will step up to the 20 kg and open up that can of whoop-*ss. I am sure the world will be a different place. 
   I think we need a beer meter in addition to the sweat meter. It seems to me the more pain that is delivered...the more people stick around for a beer. It could just be me.
  Congrats to everyone that made the journey last night. Ben made the comment and I have to agree...we have a very strong group. Have a great weekend!!
