New RBCP Olympic Weightlifting Plan Strength Focused

Here is the new plan in its entirety. We are focusing on strength in this one with slightly lower percentages on the main lifts. The Bro Sessions are an added piece of the puzzle where I am allowing the athlete to choose one ore two movements in a bodybuilding way to bring up weaknesses. This is a principle that I learned from Louie Simmons.

  1. Do you have something that explains the nomenclature? For example: Snatch Push Press to OH Squat 30×2+1,40/2+1,50/2+1,60/2+1,70/2+1 – I’m assuming 30% (etc.) of my snatch 1RM? or my OHS 1RM?

    Also, on one like this, Snatch Pulls 100%/2×3 working up heavy – I’m assuming 3 sets of 2 reps?

    Other than that, great looking program. I love all your stuff and what you’re doing. Thanks.

    Tyler

    1. I was wondering the same thing, and I could be wrong, but I think it means 2 snatch push press plus 1 OH squat. That’s one set. And I believe the percentages are based off your one rep max for that lift.
