WOD A
SNATCH
Quick 2-3m warm-up to get some plates out.
Every 90s x 11 sets: (16.5 mins)
Sets 1-3: High hang snatch x 3 (50-60% of 1RM)
Sets 4-6: Hang snatch x 2 (65-75%)
Sets 7-11: Snatch x 1 (80-95%)

You may complete all “hang” sets at the same weight or build slowly, but keep them snappy.
Aim for 5 good quality singles, try to stop short of form breaking down
Ideally a full squat snatch today, but if mobility does not allow then a deep power snatch is acceptable.
Record heavy single only today.
