Generic apps don't understand the lifts.
Most trackers treat a snatch like any other set. Phaserr programs snatch-themed and clean & jerk-themed days as first-class structure.
Olympic weightlifting program software for coaches
Build percentage-based snatch and clean & jerk programs without the spreadsheet. Set the basis, auto-calculate loads, and program to Prilepin's table with a calculator built in.
Start now
Flat percentages ignore daily readiness.
A fixed % can't predict what an athlete has on a given day. Pair %1RM waves with RPE so the load fits the session.
The week has real structure to encode.
Two-to-three snatch sessions, the technical lift first, squats and pulls sequenced around it — a builder should templatize that, not a blank spreadsheet.
Spreadsheets are a necessary evil, not a tool.
Coaches accept Excel for speed, then redo every load by hand. Set the training max once and the percentages fill themselves in.
Percentage-based snatch and clean & jerk days
Build the week the way weightlifting actually runs — snatch-themed and clean & jerk-themed days, the most technical lift first, squats and pulls sequenced around it — with loads off %1RM or training max.
- Snatch-themed and clean & jerk-themed day structure
- %1RM and training-max loading, auto-calculated
- Wave loading and back-off sets across a block
- Program the technical lift first, every session
Percentages and RPE, together
A fixed percentage can't read the day; RPE can. Program %1RM waves for the plan and RPE for the sessions where readiness varies — one athlete strong in the snatch, weak in the jerk, handled without a rewrite.
- Combine %1RM and RPE within a block
- Target weak lifts without a uniform percentage
- Track training max separately from a true 1RM
- Records feed the next block's loads automatically
From your plan to the platform
Deliver the session to your lifters by link — no app install — or as a printable sheet for the platform, and see what they actually hit.
- Share sessions by link — no athlete sign-up
- Printable PDF sheets for the training hall
- Log lifts offline; sync when back online
- Flag missed, skipped, and off-load work

Frequently asked questions
What is Olympic weightlifting program software?
It's coach-facing software for writing percentage-based weightlifting programs — snatch and clean & jerk work loaded off a 1RM or training max — instead of building them by hand in a spreadsheet. Phaserr structures the week around the classic lifts, auto-calculates loads, and includes a Prilepin calculator to check volume at each intensity.
How is this better than programming in a spreadsheet?
A spreadsheet is fast but manual — you type and recheck every load yourself. Phaserr calculates %1RM and training-max loads automatically, structures snatch and clean & jerk days, and lets you pair percentages with RPE for daily readiness. You keep the speed coaches use Excel for, without redoing the math or losing the athlete's history.
Does it support percentage-based and RPE programming?
Yes. You can program %1RM waves off a training max and use RPE where daily readiness varies — for example, backing off on a heavy snatch day. Because a flat percentage can't predict what a lifter has on a given day, combining the two lets the plan hold while the session load fits the athlete in front of you.
Can it handle Prilepin's table?
Yes. Phaserr includes a free Prilepin calculator, so you can check reps and total volume against the recommended range for each intensity zone as you program. Instead of memorizing the table or keeping it in a side document, you build the session and confirm the volume-at-intensity fits directly.
How does it work for beginners without a stable 1RM?
Beginners don't have a reliable 1RM to program off, so percentage logic needs a fallback. Phaserr supports fixed sets and reps and RPE-based loading for technique-first progression, then switches to %1RM or training-max work once the athlete's maxes stabilize — one tool that covers both the novice and the competitive lifter.
Is Phaserr free to use?
Phaserr is free to use, including the full builder, athlete tracking, and every calculator — Prilepin, 1RM, plate, and more. Create an account to program your weightlifters at no cost.
