"The snatch, not an advanced swing"


Great new article by Max Shank on the power of the basic swing. This cuts right to the chase

Rif,
I would have to agree with Max. My training over the past 6 months has proven it to myself. I think I have gained more during this time doing heavy swing intervals than during the previous 2 years working high volume, timed set snatches.

Swings are a tough concept to sell to the average Joe. They just aren;t sexy enough, yet they are clearly highly effective

the swing's the thing, that's for sure. but it's hard and it's not sexy and it's just pure hard work.
and the bell won't swing itself.

since watching your wife i have been starting to swing for real.
she gave me a reason and thats go hard or go home

32 kg swings 40 x5 37 min, step up/step over low box 4x?, supported pistols two foot down one leg up 3 x ?

This went well. Pretty strong even and faster than usual Sleep ok but not enough deep ( 30 ) HRV 59 which is good Step work was interesting,...
