Do one of the cycles that emphasize the snatch and clean & jerk - your classic lift numbers are low relative to your strength numbers. |

What if after doing a heavy single(at the end of the week), I managed to surpass my 1 RM for the Snatch and C&J, should i use these new 1 RM in my computation of my working sets for the next week? or should i just stick with my 1 RM at the start of the cycle and just get a new 1 RM after finishing the 5-week cycle?
Thanks so much! |

If you set a new PR you will take your percentages off of that for the rest of the cycle. |

Thanks for the reply. As a beginner, i am setting PRs often bec. of technique refinement.
Do you get your 1 RM in the Back Squat, Power Clean, Power Snatch & Push Press after every cycle too? if yes, how do you schedule this along with getting your 1 RM for the classical lifts?
Thanks Steve! |

You will test maxes when it is called for in a cycle, in some cases you will set PRs as heavy singles are called for. You will have to roll with the blows and adjust as you set new PRs. |

Hit a PR on Snatch today 185lbs & it actually felt pretty easy. Days like today are what keeps me going. |

On days where a heavy single is called for, if I meet my PR and feel good should I keep going up? |

If you feel good you should try and beat your PR. Try not to match your PRs, make attempts that would beat them by at least a kilo. |
