Snatch Balance - empty barbell with pause at the bottom
Power Snatch - 65# many reps with pause at the catch
Squat Snatch - 65# many reps with pause at the bottom

Did sets in between car washing tasks. Elbows and wrists were feeling real sore and stiff so just worked on technique and mobility.

Compare to 220826:
Empty barbell Snatch Balance
75-85-95# PS
75-85-95# SS

Did a bunch of reps snatch balance first.  Then switched back and forth between PS and SS at each weight.  I did reps of each until I failed a rep or felt like the technique was solid enough to stop.
