Nothing better on a Wednesday than moving weight!  That’s all today is about, taking a load and moving it through space.  On the DB step-overs, if you are comfortable going sideways over the box, have at it. In the KB Swings, keep a slight bend in your arm until the KB is right at the top or right at the bottom of the move.  And for the Alt DB Snatch, make sure both heads of the DB touch the ground every rep, and keep your free hand off your leg.  Make that core work to keep you stable.
