As stated on the CrossFit Games website:
- If you feel confident with your snatch technique and the weight feels manageable, you may want to add five pounds to the barbell after finishing each set of snatches.
- Keep in mind that the recommended load is just a starting point. If you are performing all the tests in the Foundations division, you have the option to decrease or increase the weight based on your skill level.
