    This may not be the right forum, but I wanted your input. I imagine it should be something like the programming for a shot-putter. My shitty gym has no bumpers, so snatches and jerks are out. I'm intermediate, 43, 6'2", 240. Does the following look reasonable?

    Monday:
    Power Cleans 5x3
    Bench 3x5
    abs

    Tuesday:
    Squat 3x5
    Press 3x5
    chins

    Thursday:
    Power Cleans 5x3
    Bench Speed Sets 8x3
    hypers

    Friday:
    Squat Speed Sets 8x2
    Push Press 3x5
    chins

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks

    This looks pretty good, but I am not a Highland Games trainer.

    Right now I'm a lifter who throws. I'm aspiring to be a thrower who lifts.
