Saturday's Workout

10 snatches with a barbell or you can use a kettlebell
If you can't make the full 10 in one set without putting it down, do 5 push ups for every rep you missed (i.e. if you did 8 snatches out of 10, you do 10 push ups.)
If you make the full ten, do ten burpees as a reward

As many rounds in 15 minutes

Tip: use a weight that challenges you and stop snatching when you lose explosive speed = don't be tempted to muscle the last few reps just to make ten.

Master your own bodyweight...

A lot of people seem so eager to progress onto lifting weights before even mastering their own bodyweight. Push ups, squats and chin ups should all be done correctly before you even think about needing to lift a weight. They are the foundations of everything physical. Remember strong foundations are the key in everything we do otherwise whatever we put on top will simply topple. Think about Bruce Lee and how he practised the basics for hour after hour. This is what made him exceptional. There is nothing stopping you from being exceptional except yourself. Be great, be kind but most of all be yourself.
