There is one key thing we need to identify to get the best result in this workout. Which movement has got the largest displacement? In other words, which movement takes the longest per rep? In 24.1 it is clearly the burpee. This is where most time can be made or lost, not the snatches. 

We recommend coming up with a strategy that can maximise your performance on the burpees.
