TM only on squats - when to deadlift?

[Stu Hughes]

Andy,

You know I'm running TM on squats only, but I know it's preferred NOT to deadlift on the squat volume day.

What if I power clean Monday, introduce the power snatch Wednesday, and deadlift Friday BUT just run them all linearly, looking to increase each week?

Mon: PC 5x3
Wed: PS 8x2
Fri: DL 1x5

Thanks.

Stu

Fine by me. FWIW my preference is not to deadlift on squat volume days. Others have done well with this approach.

What is the significance of adding in the snatch in the most recent TM template? Just another lift to generate power?

Basically, yes.
