Workout Description

Athlete has 50 seconds to complete 20 Double Unders and 1 snatch.

Why This Workout Is Very Hard

A challenging snatch ladder requiring athletes to perform double-unders and then a heavy snatch within short time windows. Tests Olympic lifting strength, technique, and coordination under pressure.

Training Focus

This workout develops the following fitness attributes:

Strength (10/10): This is a direct test of maximal snatch strength. The score is the heaviest load successfully lifted. Weights progress to very heavy for both men and women.

Power (10/10): The snatch is arguably the ultimate display of explosive power, speed, and coordination. This ladder tests the ability to generate that power successfully for single heavy reps after a skill component.

Flexibility (8/10): Requires elite-level full-body mobility for efficient snatches at maximal loads (overhead squat position, shoulder stability, hip/ankle mobility). Wrist/shoulder for DUs.

Speed (7/10): Bar speed, speed under the bar, and speed of movement during the lift are absolutely critical for successfully completing maximal snatches. The 50-second window per attempt (including DUs) demands quick execution.

Endurance (4/10): A snatch ladder with increasing weight (Men: 155lb up to 295lb; Women: 105lb up to 185lb), with 20 DUs before each attempt, and 50s per attempt window. Minimal cardiovascular endurance demand, focused on maximal power, speed, and technique for single heavy snatches under skill fatigue/time pressure.

Stamina (3/10): Requires the ability to perform DUs and then immediately execute a heavy snatch repeatedly as weights increase. Tests coordination stamina and the ability to recover quickly for maximal lifts.
