Rich Froning has one of the best snatch techniques among the top CrossFitters.
Event 5 of the Central East Regional was a Snatch Ladder. You had to do 20 double unders as a buy in before you could attempt a weight.
The Ladder (in lb): 155, 165, 175, 185, 195, 205, 215, 225, 235, 245, 255, 265, 275, 285, 295
Rich put 125kg (275 lb) overhead. And he just murdered event 6.
These crossfitter’s are improving really quickly. I remember watching this guy last year, and his snatch wasn’t anywhere as good as this.
Win Win situation for CrossFit and Weightlifting.
Does anyone not see his left elbow unlocking? Is this not a foul in cross fit?
The “fouls” in CF are close to non-existent. They don’t really adhere to the same technique as an Olympic Weightlifting meet.

this might sound really noob, but why do they skip in between?
