​9/29/21 WORKOUT

Quite often when I program Olympic lifts for general population in a CrossFit gym, I prefer to do higher rep sets at more moderate intensities. This provides the opportunity for the individuals to get more practice moving a barbell at higher velocities. 

As a progression I will change from higher rep sets of one specific traditional movement like a clean or snatch, to movement combinations like shown above.  Using different movement combinations requires higher degrees of coordination from the athlete and I believe had a a good carry over to metcons that require multiple barbell movements.

Also, doing my oriole movements within a barbell complex, limits the risk over training a specific movement pattern keeping the athlete fresher
