Relearning to snatch, 20 kg swings 20 x 5, band ext 4 x 15

 Though that maybe snatches would open up the shoulder and not jack my back. Seems to have gone ok

Right shoulder overhead is tight but I rotate left to right not the opposite as I do trying to lock out the barbell press

Plus  it activates the flexion muscles of the shoulder not the lats

We'll see
