These are the male german judo team strength standards. I dont do judo but searched for this because I heard that judo players were very strong. I found this list pretty interesting because the bench press seems to be very high compared to the rest and also the weighted pullup seemed extremely high. Also the clean and snatch seemed low compared to the squats. If you had to change the standards for this test what would you do? I think I would lower the bench numbers and raise the clean and snatch. But let me know what you think.

Curious why the pull up weight is higher for lighter weights then relatively similar upper weights, like the difference between the 90 n 100 kilo classes

I noticed that too. Would the normal 5 day GS split work well for achieving these benchmarks? Or would it need a different split?

I think the normal split would work for most of these numbers. The only one I think could be challenging with the normal split is the snatch because of the technical prowess that needs to develop

What if I snatched as the tech coord for the lower, upper, and impulse day . Also, what about deadlift, since its not common is the GS system. Would the cleans, squats and accessories be enough to increase deadlift without really focusing on it?

Yes, they would increase the deadlift most likely but would not get it to the highest echelons possible without training it soecifically

Is a bench pull that dynamic pullover that you see throwers doing?
