Week 8 - Reverse Ramp Loading

Homework

Get comfortable with heavy loads.
Find a challenging weight.
Decrease the weight slightly each set.
Decreasing load slightly with incomplete recovery allows us to start with a weight that would have been unsustainable (too intense) for flat loading.
 
Build to 90% in 5-20kg jumps of single.
Take one set off (approx. 2 minutes rest) before the 90% single.
Decrease bar weight by 2.5-5kg per set for 5 sets.
 
eg. With my front squat max of 130kg I built to 115kg and then decreased weight each set by 2.5kg down to 100kg.
