Snatch and Group WOD at work!

Today was a workout on the base again. "In the House" Circuit training. A good cardio style workout. You start with a partner and while your partner is running around the gym 2 times you continually do an exercise. Once they are done the running they "tag" you and you then run around the gym 2 times. The movements were"

Push ups
2 times around the gym (160m)
Sit ups
2 times around the gym (160m)
Squats
2 times around the gym (160m)
Dips
2 times around the gym (160m)
Lunges
2 times around the gym (160m)
Lateral Jumps
2 times around the gym (160m)
Front Raises with 16lbs medball
2 times around the gym (160m)
Repeat

25mins of work total

I then went to the weight room and did Snatch
95-115-115-125-135-145-145

I felt stronger and think I can get more weight overhead if I focus and clean up the form. I have a feeling that my snatch is very ugly. I think I was jumping on the landing too wide. When I land I would land with knees about 90 degrees. I would like to get a lot deeper and not land so wide. I practiced the landing for a bit after to try and correct that error. Handstand practice for about 10mins as well. Starting to get the feel of staying in one spot. 1 min freestanding handstand is a goal for the next few months.
