That’s typivally beginner’s overtraining unless you have built up to that level of neuromuscular stress over a period of years. Make some of the reps higher (6-12). Get rid of the side press and the Bradford Press. Alternate between the GHR and GM. Alternate between the snatch and the clean pull
The volume might be doable if you could do that over 4 or 5 days. That’s a lot of volume in one workout and I would expect some drop off toward the latter lifts.
Also, there is no need to work up to a 1RM on bench.

Actually, that’s pretty much right on target for any Renegade program. Davies tends to chalk up what most people view as “overtraining” to not being willing to truly bust your ass. I have done one of his programs before and it is tough, but the volume is not excessive in that it’s not as if you are doing 85-90% of 1 RM all the time on the higher volume sets.

I assumed all the sets at 5 reps or below were at or above 85%. I agree with him for the most about about overtraining, the only people who seem to experience it are the people that are familiar with it.I think it can truly develop over a period of a month or so; a good indicator of it seems to be a big drop of in appetite despite increased caloric needs.

Why would you assume that?
Generally, the only people that can do 5 reps with 85% or more of there max are weak people and women. For example, a 400 lb. squatter usually can’t do 5 reps with 340 lbs., especially not for multiple sets in a workout.

I would strongly suggest you not use that program or the protocols you suggested. It will definately lead to enormous problems and not prepare you for Football. Feel free to contact me directly.
Renegade training programs do not split the work into Lower and Upper Body Days, but rather are full-body training sessions. I would arrange my schedule more like this:
Day 1
A. Snatch or Power Snatch
Bench Press
Squats
B. Good Mornings
Chin-ups
C. Ab Work
Day3
A. Push Press
Drop Snatch
Snatch Deadlift
B. Rows
Lunges or Step-ups
C. Ab Work
Day 5
A. Power Clean or Clean
Bench or Incline Bench
Front Squat
B. Chin-ups
GHR’s or Reverse Hypers
C. Ab Work
Now this is just an example, just to give you some sort of structure. For the movements in part A, look up Prilepin’s Chart and use it. The section B movements are supplemental and would be trained using 2-4 sets of 5-10 reps.
As I said in the first part - I would strongly suggest using this workout in conjunction with the other parts of my programs.
I have no idea who is suggesting this program but this has nothing to do with Renegade Training protocols.
In faith,
J. Davies

My apologies for this typo - but I meant to say that I strongly advise AGAINST using the suggested template in conjuction with the balance of my program.
