How to add power snatches to the beginner template?

Training Q&A [Moderated]

I just started the beginner template this week after completing 3 months of Starting Strength. I love barbell snatches but they’re not in the BM beginner template - looks like barbell rows are the closest thing. Any suggestions to keep these movements in my program? Great product created by the team - still getting used to rpe, but I like the spreadsheets.

We would not add snatches to the beginner template if you are a beginner. You’ll have plenty of time in the future to actually train them :slight_smile:

That’s cool man. If you’re already in the gym and have been for awhile, I’m not sure you need The Beginner Program. That being said, if you’re an adult beginner I would not spend time training the Olympic lifts until you’ve completed a program similar to our beginner template.

The Olympic Lifts (power snatches, etc) cannot be TrainedTM . They can only be Practiced®
