On a 20:00 clock:
Build to a 1-rep-max back squat
– Welcome to week six of the Back Squat lifting / strength cycle. This is a test week! The goal is to build to a heavy 1-rep.
– Within the 20-minute clock, aim to complete 6-10 total lifts. Any more than 10 lifts and you are not getting enough rest between efforts.
– Be sure to warm up to at least 50% of your recent 1-rep-max before starting the 20-minute clock.
