Loading Notes
• Target 4-6 reps on the final max effort set at 85%; sets 1-5 are quality working sets, not builds to a limit.
• Reps decrease as load increases, so the bar should feel heavier each set without ever changing depth or bar speed.
• This peaks the back squat progression before a small deload next week and the 3RM in Week 9 of the cycle.
