Jerk split squat: Rack the bar on your back as you would for a back squat and step into your jerk split receiving position.

First time NOOB here. Quick question. How much time do your athletes rest for something like 95% x4 Power Snatch? I can only do 4 sets of 1 with rest in between.
I am not used to training at 95%-ish levels, so even for something like the back squat, I was only able to do 2 reps at 95% of my 1RM, for Monday's 6/27's 95% x 6.
Should I decrease the % or just do as many sets until I can hit 6 next time?
Thanks,
Daron

Never Mind, I figured it out reading past questions. Thanks, though!
