I'm just going to have to work on doing snatches in general for this.

**Standard** · 05-01-2008, 10:30 AM

I was considering the open snatch challenge as the title but it may have given the wrong idea...

**Cap'n** · 05-01-2008, 10:36 AM

Interesting...I'll be doing this in the next couple of days

Crivens!

I'm fucking awful at maths.

where are the conditioning challenges that actually require having beasty I-put-my-lungs-through-hell conditioning, and not weights?

;-(

This is a cool challenge, I'll be making my challenge debut with this one

**Standard** · 05-01-2008, 10:58 AM

Foz you can use a pink 2lb DB if you like...

This should be a good lung burner, with the short time it's going to favour a light to moderate weight to get the highest volume. I don't think busting out near your max with long rest periods is going to work for anyone at all.

Looking forward to doing this, maybe this afternoon if I've got time.

Standard, was the title of this challenge something your girlfriend suggested?
