70's Big Basic 3Day Template by Justin Lascek
(Originally found http://70sbig.com/blog/2014/09/weightlifting-and-strength-program/)

 
Program Cliffs:

  • Basic template allowing modification of sets/reps and variations
  • Tackles the competitive lifts twice a week, with another day intended for overall strength work
  • Utilizes alternating heavy and medium loads on the contested lifts
    • Medium weights around 80% of Max, 6-10 reps at roughly 1minute apart
    • Heavy weights work up to heavy singles, roughly 5 reps total
  • Open ended; lifters could combine with Texas Method squat program
  • Recommended weekly weight increase of 2.5-5kg; eventually whittle 5 singles to 3 then to 1.
  • Keep progressing on weight and multiple singles going (roughly 2-3 months total)
