If you look in the Over 35 Section of the site Carl Darby has a training log that does OL and 5/3/1 for assistance lifts - plenty of good info via his experience there.

What are your goals? What are you trying to accomplish that lead you to this plan? These answers will help us help you.

unrelated question, what are you current Sn and CnJ?

Current PRs: Snatch 115 CnJ 150. (bodyweight around 150 lbs)

NewWorldMan, Could you link me to Carl Darby’s post on Oly and 5/3/1, I couldn’t find it.

Right now, my goals are to improve my O-lifts and gain mass (hence the 8-15 rep ranges on assistance exercises). I know I could get better at O-lifts by specializing a little more, but I’m only 18 and I’d like to build a base of all around strength before specializing. I’ve also only been doing O-lifts for about 3 months.

there really impressive lifts man. You have a 150kg CnJ after only 3 months? damn got any vids?

Haha I’m really sorry man. those are all in lbs.

Thanks for finding the link!

Page 30 of his journal he provides a detailed template (don’t know how to specific posts on this site) including how he prioritizes the O-lits and variants and 5/3/1 for ‘assistance’.
