100 reps = felt great

Interesting about BP's helping with snatches..

thanks Tom. Managed to gain zero weight on vacation - worked out alot!

Try lifting a couple of singles on the bench prior to Snatching, and let me know what you think?

Tommy Shook said...

I shall do that, and let you know. Thanks for the tip!

nice volume of snatches.I had no luck combining benches with snatches but I had wrecked shoulders coming in.
