Alright, if you are participating in the Crossfit open, you either love or hate this workout. If you like to lift heavy, you love it. If barbell movements are your weakness, not so much love. 17.3 open workout looks tough! The “snatch” is one if the most complex movements in Crossfit BUT if you knocked it out…good for you! Like the last 3 weeks, bellow is a variation to 17.3 anyone can do! There are similar movements to previous open posts but the modality is completely different. Have fun!
