Yesterday’s barbell snatches might have simply been a warm up for today’s overhead squats. And today’s part 1 overhead squats MIGHT just be a warm up for the sixty reps of overhead squats in part 2. Then again perhaps back-to-back days of snatch and overhead squats show up like that just to ensure that everyone gets at least one day of “the world’s greatest barbell movements.” Or maybe I’m just revealing my secret preferences!
What are YOUR favorite barbell movements? Curls and bench? Deadlifts and back squats? Thrusters anyone? Post the barbell lift that you love to do in comments!
