optimized structure and distribution of load

The main volume of the program's load is aimed at developing the snatch, but also the program contains sufficient volume in snatch pull, clean & jerk exercises for “activating the muscle memory”.

There are no clean pulls in this program due to focus on snatch exercises.

Volume in squats optimally minimized.

FAQ

How many days per week is the training?

You can perform this clean workout program in two ways:

  1. If the task is to build a base for further competitive training, we recommend 5 sessions per week, where Thursday and Sunday are off days.
  2. In the absence of a specific goal and competition timing, you can train every other day. This will extend the training program for almost 7 weeks and let you train sparingly with optimal recovery.

Can I combine it with other types of training?

Yes, you can, but the program's effectiveness largely depends on your responsibility when it comes to the training process, sleep, nutrition, and recovery. Train smart, get enough rest.

Will this program prepare me for the competition?

SNATCH CYCLE isn’t a program that should be used to get ready for a competition. After the completion of the training cycle, an athlete can do a MAXOUT session in the SNATCH to check their current progress. If your goal is to compete,I recommend to continue training using my competition training program.

What type of equipment is needed for this program?

  • Barbell
  • Bumper Plates
  • Squat Racks
  • PVC
  • GHD
  • Rubber bands
  • Blocks
  • Kettlebells
  • Plyometric Box (approx. 20-24 Inch)

I am a coach and I want to use it for my gym / my clients.

This program is for personal use only. But if you want to use it for your gym and/or clients you can reach out to us via email to agree a commercial usage of the program. It will give you even more benefits.
