"And in those simple beautiful movements I remembered what was really important in training; that consistency trumps intensity; all the time. That intensity is born from consistency. That one cannot force it, one has to lay in wait for it, patiently, instinctively, calmly and be ready to grab it when Grace lays it down in front of you."

Snatch Vo2 17 min, walking lunges,parallel bar pushups, side laterals
Haven't gone this long in the snatch vo2 in many years. Hard to imagine I did 80 sets of 8 in this almost ten years ago! I don't want to go that far again but I built up to it the same way I'll be building up this time 2-3 steps forwards, 1-2 steps back. Rinse and repeat
Had a hard time getting my groove right away as this speed and the lighter bell weight can let me do virtually any technique but I want to keep a decent hinge and my " ba boom" technique so as to transfer to my 24 kg snatch
Once I got past 5 minutes things settled down and my groove appeared
Overhead position was decent right from the start with NO biceps pain or impingement
Heartate was up to 160+ pretty quickly too.
Tried to double breath on this but couldn't figure it out at this pace yet.
No worries

yeow! feel the quad burn. shorter steps give me better knee forward translation and the lower quad and ankle dorsi flexion I want from this
Lungs ok and finally feeling NO jetlag. took long enough!
