It looks like Pendlay's Beginner's Program could be a good fit.

In a weightlifting program like this with a lot of singles, how long does a person typically resting between lifts? For example, Workout 1 from Pendlay's Beginner Program looks like:

Snatch: 1 x 10
Clean pull + hang clean: 1 x 5
Push Press: 5 x 3
Back Squat: 5 x 3
Complex

If you were waiting 5+ minutes between each snatch like you usually do between max effort lifts, it'd take an hour to get through them. Is that just kind of how it goes when you start getting into the sport?
