More RKC Snatch Test Training.

Last week I started training for the RKC Snatch Test, 100 reps in five Minutes. I'm using a David Whitley's "How To Improve Your Secret Service Snatch Test Score" My first session was last Wednesday. I warmed up with 5 set of 10 swings with a 24kg bell. Rested before I started snatches. I did 6 sets of 20(10L/10R) with a 24kg bell with one minute rest between sets.

Today I felt good, so I warmed up with swing using a 32kg bell, but only 3 sets of 10. Took a rest before I got started. I picked up my 24kg bell to start my snatch workout. I completed 7 sets of 20 (10L/10R). I improved by one set. It felt good. I focused on locking out, waiting to releasing the lock out until the last possible second. Feet are rooted. Pulling the bell down and swing it back not down. Friday will be the my next training day. I will stay with the 7 set of 20 until the following week then move up to 8 sets and lower the rest time to 50 seconds between sets.

My goal is to re-test myself at the end of June to complete the RKC Snatch Test of 100 snatches in under five minutes.

RKC Snatch Test Test Drive

This Morning I did the NEW RKC Snatch Test, 100 Snatches in five minutes with a 24kg Kettlebell. I haven't done it yet, so I though today would be good day to try. I did 90 snatches in 4:45 then but the bell down because I was out of gas. Not bad for the first time. Not good because I should have finished the the last 15 seconds and hit 100. I will train to pass the test with ease. I will re-test myself at the end of the month to see how much or how little I improved.
