Ken Snell is a veteran American powerlifter and deadlift specialist, best known within masters and lighter-weight classes rather than as an elite international lifter, whose training approach and competitive history attract attention especially among natural lifters and those in age-group powerlifting.
This workout was republished Aug/2000 from POWERLIFTINGUSA.
In competition, Snell posted strong results primarily in lighter weight classes (notably 114 lb/123 lb categories) across multiple federations including the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU), American Powerlifting Federation (APF), World Natural Powerlifting Federation (WNPF), and World Association of Benchers and Deadlifters (WABDL).
Personal bests include deadlifts in the 430–475 lb range and totals around 1000 – 1150 lb across various meets, with first-place finishes in national and masters divisions from the 1990s into early 2000s.
Lifters may choose to follow Snell’s routine for several reasons: its simple yet progressive structure suitable for natural strength development; emphasis on accessory work to strengthen muscles supporting the deadlift; and its orientation toward timed peaking for competition.
