Olympic Lifting

16 minutes

Snatch Grip Deadlift

Hang Power Snatch

FOCUS:

  • Phases of the Snatch to build toward 1-rep max in week 4

  • Time frames for all levels is 16 minutes. Beginner focuses on basic movements to work on the movement pattern of the snatch. Intermediate works on the full movements, but separated with a moderate weight. Advanced works on different phases and variations of the lift within a complex

  • As a coach, instruct the advanced athletes what the complex is then let them get going on getting weights out and beginning the warm-up. Go into more detail with the beginner and intermediate athletes to explain the why behind what is programmed (mentioned above) and explain the key points of the movements. During the time frame focus on these two levels when coaching, does not mean the advanced athletes do not need coaching, but especially in week 1 the beginner and intermediate athletes will need some more help to better set up the rest of this cycle.

  • If someone is going back and forth between which level to do then go to the lower one

BEGINNER OPTION: very new to the lift, most likely does not have the ability to reach a 1-rep max due to technical faults
