I have been thinking about adding an arm day. My current lifting schedule does nothing for my arms directly. I am looking for a simple program or suggestions to plug into what I am doing, I do not want to add anything to the Monday, or Friday work outs, sometimes it takes 2 hours to get through them..those days can be very taxing.
Monday: Snatch Day; warm up/technique, snatches, snatch-pulls, back squats, Accessory work: OH-presses or other shoulder work,
Wednesday: Bench Press 5/3/1-BBB, dips, rowing, optional conditioning
Friday: Clean and Jerk Day; warm up/ technique, clean and jerks, clean-pulls, front squats,Accessory work: more technique work and OH presses.
Sat or Sunday; Arm day, optional conditioning.
I dont know anything about hypertrophy or how to manipulate sets/reps or this exercise or that. At any rate this would be an optional day depending on how I am feeling, I would include some extra conditioning.

IDK much about oly lifting OP so I hesitate to even comment. But it looks like you are doing a lot of push work.
I'd think about something simple like chins and BB curls. Face pulls can be a good simple accessory too.The most important aspect of weight training; whether for the athlete, bodybuilder, or average person is to better ones health and ability without injury. - Bill Pearl

I am not so sure exactly how OLY training effects muscle groups, one thing for sure there is little to no eccentric, not a lot of time under tension, and I am supposed to try and stay in the same weight class (85kg) should I ever complete. But some of the modern lifters obviously take time to do an arm pump somehow....its something they never talk or write about.
This is what I was kind of doing once in awhile, I did not have a policy of doing a set work out, it was just something I felt like doing towards the end of a training session.
Looking like I should add more arm work if I can to bench day, avoid making another day I suppose.
Once again thanks
