“ELIZABETH”

Power cleans, 43/62kg

A classic CrossFit benchmark involving a medium-weight barbell pull paired with a high-stability bodyweight pushing movement. Each round can be broken up into three sets, but should you break them up that way? These are meant to be done in fast, pushing the intensity as far as you can, as quickly as you can.

What’s the difference between “power” and “full”/”squat” versions of the olympic lifts?

From Catalyst Athletics:

Coaches and athletes sometimes have different definitions of what constitutes a “power” receiving position. Most commonly, anything received with the thighs horizontal or higher is considered a power lift. Others will require the knee to be bent to no more than 90 degrees, and others will count only lifts with the thighs above horizontal (i.e. a lift with thighs exactly horizontal is too low). Some lifters will also intentionally receive power snatches with a much wider foot stance than in the snatch. This makes arresting the downward movement easier, but also means that the lift cannot continue into a full squat if the bar isn’t elevated adequately.
