8.2.10 - Grab Bag WOD - Snatches and a bunch of other stuff

242.8

Metcon:
10 Snatches (#95, #115)
20 Chest to Bar Pullups
30 Stick Jumps (20")
40 Ball Slams (#20, #15)
30 Stick Jumps (20")
20 Chest to Bar Pullups
10 Snatches (#95, #115)

15:47 - not 100% sure of that time. It was 15-something though.

No idea what a stick jump is but I guess I'll find out soon enough. I wonder why he wouldn't just prescribe box jumps? Sometimes I think CrossFit gets too cute with the variation. But, what I like about this is that it isn't endless sets like an AMRAP and you can see the end from the beginning, as opposed to a WOD where we do 5 or 6 rounds of whatever.

Update: A stick jump is just a sideways hop over a bar - in this case the barbell at nothing like 20". It's a good movement though and I hope we do it again. We don't do a lot of side-lateral movements, which I think is kind of a gaping hole in our programming.

The ball slam was great, great, great! I really like that movement.
