EMOM Weightlifting Program (13 weeks)
What is EMOM?
EMOM stands for Every Minute on the Minute. It is a training protocol where you complete a
specific set of movements or exercises every minute, then rest until the end of the minute, then
you start again once the next minute starts.
Typically, these workouts will range from 10-30 minutes in length and athletes will be doing 3-5
reps per minute. So, for a 10 minute EMOM, you could do 10 rounds of 5 reps of a designated
movement or set of movements.
Benefits of EMOM Training
Increases strength endurance
Helps athletes understand proper pacing for different movements
Improves both cardio and strength
Effective for burning fat because intensity is not too high
Very time-efficient style of training
Helps athletes improve technique while under duress
What this program is:
This is a 12-week training cycle (with an additional transition week at the beginning) that uses
snatch, clean and jerk singles on the minute along with plenty of pull and squat strength work.
This cycle is good for technical consistency in the classic lifts.
