I am progressing into an intermediate schedule and the plan is to follow the Texas method from Practical Programming. How should reps and sets be spread through the week for deadlifts, cleans, and snatch? Currently DL is 1 set of 5, and clean/snatch is 5 sets of 3.
Current assistance exercises are a chin variant (hammer, pronated or supinated) and leg raise/weighted sit-ups. Alternating each session: 1) supinated chin and leg raise, 2) pronated chin and sit-ups, 3) hammer chin and leg raise, 4) Supinated chin and sit-ups, etc.
Examples from PP:
Squats
Day1 5x5 (previous Day3 + 5lbs)
Day2 2x5 (80% of Day1)
Day3 1x5 (Day1 + 5lbs)
Press and Bench
Day1 Press 5x5
Day2 Bench 3x5
Day3 Press 1RM, 2RM, or 3RM
Snatch/Clean

Day2 ?
Day3 ?

Thank you.
