Clean & Jerk and Heavy Bag

It’s time to get back to the basic Olympic lifts…..the snatch and clean & jerk.
Lately I’ve done some kettlebell versions and some power snatches and power cleans, but I’ve gotten kind of lazy about doing the “real” things.
So, today was the day to start back with a great clean & jerk workout….I couldn’t go as heavy as I used to, but my form felt good.
Hopefully the snatch workout will feel as good.
Later, I spent 1/2 hr of quality time with my heavy bag.

Hi! I'm Patrick Frey, your in-home, online and on-the-trail Personal Trainer, Fitness Educator, and Strength & Conditioning Specialist. With over 35 years of fitness experience, and certifications from the National Strength and Conditioning Association, the International Sports Sciences Association, and the American Council on Exercise, I have the knowledge and experience you need to reach your health and fitness goals. My interests over the years have included running, bicycling, cross-country skiing, hiking, backpacking, bodybuilding, powerlifting, olympic lifting, volleyball, and general health, fitness and nutrition. I've trained hundreds of people of all ages and abilities from elite athletes to sedentary couch potatoes, in everything from well equipped gyms to un-equipped homes, online, in the park and on the trails. To me, there's nothing more exciting than helping people improve their health, look better, feel better, or improve their sports performance.
