I just read the SFG email that says the strength test has been changed from two bells to one for the C&P and the swing. I was extremely close to have the double press requirements for the cert (I'm going to the one March 13-15). However, my only issue is my grip / forearms for the snatch test. I realize I'm not the first person concerned with the snatch test... I met with an SFG prior to deciding to do the SFG cert, and he didn't see any issue with me moving forward in such a short time-frame (7 weeks at that point).
Would it be wise of me to modify my program to focus a little more on the grip aspect and less on the double press? I'm currently in my 4th week using Brett Jones' SFG Prep program.
Recent numbers are as follows:
Week 2: Sunday / SFG Prep Day 3: 15 minutes of snatches @ 24kg x 5+5 x 15= 150
Week 3: Sunday / SFG Prep Day 3: 14 minutes of snatches @ 24kg x 6+6 x 13= 156
Week 3: Tuesday / Snatch Prep Day 1: 10 minutes of 2-handed swings @ 32kg x 20, 20, 17, 17, 17, 17, 17, 13, 11, 13= 162 swings
Week 3: Wednesday / Snatch Prep Day 2: 15 minutes of snatches @ 16kg x 15, 15, 15, 15, 15, 15, 15, 15, 15, 15, 12, 12, 12, 12, 5, 5= 208
If anyone has suggestions on modification, your thoughts would be very much appreciated! Or maybe my progress is plenty adequate enough (that would be ideal). Thanks in advance.
