Background: 33 y/o male, been using kettlebells since 2015, achieved Simple in June 2021
Upcoming events: military PT test in April (max push-ups in 1 minute, max sit-ups in 1 minute, 1.5-mile run for time)
LIMFACs: trial lawyer. I’m often in court for a week at a time or preparing for court, and have an hour-long commute one way
I’m looking for a minimalist program to keep improving my snatch while preparing for my upcoming PT test. I was doing A+A snatches with the 24kg until I took a three-week break for my honeymoon and COVID. I want to keep snatching without expending brainpower. Here’s my plan:
Ballistics: 24kg snatches using the Die-Rolled Variability scheme
Grinds: push-ups using the second of Jody Beasley’s plans for building powerful push-ups.
That lets me work on two exercises I want to keep improving with a relatively minimal time commitment. Snatches shouldn’t take a long time, and each block of push-ups takes ten minutes.
I am skeptical of my own idea because it’s my idea. Any thoughts? Think this is enough work? I figured the push-ups replace the grind component of the Die-Rolled Variability. I won’t stay on push-ups forever, so if there are other grinds that would pair well with snatches, I’m open to suggestions.
