TEN WEEK SNATCH PROGRAM
NICK URANKAR
10 WEEK SNATCH PROGRAM
INTRODUCTION
All the Every Minute on the Minutes are designed to be done at weights you
can practice form and need to focus because the weight is heavy enough
that it is challenging yet if you focus you should be able to make a great lift.
All Max lifts except Week 1 and 10 are designed to go as heavy as you
feel comfortable with for the day. I consider these a heavy daily lift. It is not
a max out though if you feel great lean into it and keep going. If you don’t
stop when you feel necessary.
Make sure to focus on your lifts during your rests and focus on only 1-3
things a session that you want to improve. Don’t get overwhelmed as this is
a long process. This 10 week program is designed as a jump-start and can
be used as much as you see fit.
This is a two day a week program designed to have at least two days
rest in between days. This allows for you to add in any training you like
however no snatching or similar lifting that we are doing between.
Every Snatch is considered a Squat unless it specifies power.
This is great to add to the Zeus program as I help cater programs like this.
Enjoy and have fun Snatching like a Pro!
