Preemptive TL;DR: Where/how do I program snatches into 5/3/1?Do I add it to the regular 4 lifts or replace one of the lifts with it?Are snatch grip deads, snatch high pulls AND snatches redundantWhat generally effects OHP more: push press or incline press?What has been your experience with floor presses? Ok so when I'm excited about being in the gym, I tend to look forward at future programming. I'm currently on my 2nd cycle of 5/3/1 with my current workouts looking like this: Workout A Press 5/3/1 Pull/Chin Ups between Press sets - pulls to balance the pressing and bicep/back work CGBP (3 sets) - work the triceps, help bench lockout (if I remember correctly) Core work (curls & tricep work if I have the time) - cause...core Workout B Deadlift 5/3/1 Reverse Hypers between DL sets (perfect world) - For the lower back and hamstrings Front Squat (3 sets) - helping with quad strength and keeping a solid upper back Core work Workout C Bench 5/3/1 Pull/Chin Ups between Bench Incline Bench (3 sets) - shoulder work with heavier weight Kroc rows - stronger upper back carries over to my deads and my grip strength has gotten better Workout D Squat 5/3/1 Good Mornings (3 sets) - kills the hammies and teaches me on not rounding my upper back during squats Core work As the title says, I'm interested in playing with the snatch and snatch grip related lifts, but don't exactly know how to program it in. After I finish my current cycle and my training to be a mini triathlete, I will be taking on the 10,000 Kettlebell Swing Challenge, then into my third cycle so I have more than enough time to iron this plan out. Workout A Press 5/3/1 Pull/Chin Ups between Press sets Floor Presses Snatch High Pulls Workout B Deadlift 5/3/1 Reverse Hypers between DL sets (perfect world) Squat 3x5 or 5x5 (my squat needs more volume than 5/3/1 offers) Core work Workout C Bench 5/3/1 Pull/Chin Ups between Bench Incline Bench or Push Press (???do push presses carry over to strict press???) Kroc rows Workout D Squat 5/3/1 Snatch Grip Core work
