I’m ready for this one mate @aldebaran
Yeah I’m not, my brother took all the weights, only got bands now. I guess I’ll do WODs in my garden ahahah
You’ll not be allowed to lift some weights with your school ?
Apparently it will be closed ![]()

Where were the holds done? In a power snatch starting position?
Feels like you’re gonna have mad traps soreness
I did not specifically ask for details so I held the bar at the navel level with my traps contracted
IMHO considering the explosive nature of the movement I would do the hold previous to the pull, like at knee or hips level, being all tense and in proper form
Even if it’s from the hang ?
Yes. For people interested in performance in o-lifs and not just a tool, his “from the hang” are always done with a 2-3 pause at knee level. You learn to be in the key position and to generate as much power as you can.
Yeah like that you won’t generate much traps fatigue, but it will on all the postural muscles, as well as lower back, glutes and hammies which are the prime movers with the traps
I see your point, but my goal for this block is to build bigger traps/shoulders/upper Back/upper chest, and not performance oriented at all

This is the brosiest thing I’ve ever seen but I’m super curious as how doing this kind of work will afect your biceps size and strength!
And I’m loving it ![]()
And it fits pretty well with my current health state, 3 hard days per week is fine, and an not so hard fourth is ok.
If it was 4 hard days, with 2 in a row it would be too hard to recover from.
So this bro day is PERFECT (And the pump is amazing haha)
