was surprised on the difference between T2B and Snatches had on my heart rate.  I thought T2B would cause my heart rate to spike as that is historically a very difficult movement for me.  Shockingly, my heart rate didn't spike like I had expected it too.  On the other hand, the snatches wrecked havor on my heart rate.  I should've expected it given the impact KBS have but at such a light weight I didn't expect it.  Every time I put the barbell down, my heart rate would spike and i'd have to wait 7-10secs for it to come down and that is my my burpees numbers are so low.  I did hang power snatches because I used small 5Kg plates instead of training plates.
