For today’s strength you likely don’t have a 1RM.  Hence, no %’s.  Work up to a max effort set of 5 reps on the last set.  For safety, use a spotter on ALL sets.  You should generally not be failing on any set except maybe the last one of the day.  If you’re unsure about your technique or ability to perform a given set safely at a particular load, then use common sense and good judgement.  When in doubt, live to lift again another day.      

For the metcon, consider using an Overhead Squat load of 45% 1RM to ensure proper movement execution and to maximize power output and intensity.
