Isabel
30 snatches for time at a fixed barbell weight, Grace's more technical cousin, trading raw speed for the added skill demand of the snatch's overhead catch.

|---|---|
| Advanced | 3:00 – 4:30 |

Expect Isabel a minute or more slower than your Grace. The snatch punishes fatigue harder.

Scaling
Scaled
95/65 lb power snatches, singles from the floor. The snatch degrades fastest under fatigue of any lift. Scale until 30 crisp reps is realistic.
Beginner
Empty bar or light dumbbell, 20-30 reps, as technique practice under a gentle clock. A PVC-to-empty-bar progression session beats a sloppy timed effort.
The story
Grace's twin: the same thirty reps and the same barbell, but snatched instead of clean-and-jerked. Technique degrades faster overhead, which is exactly the test. Elite athletes finish in under 2 minutes, but only with a snatch that survives a red-lined heart rate. First posted to CrossFit.com on 2004-11-11.
