๐ Notes & Tips
- Bar speed is king. If it slows, you've gone too far.
- Training Max โ Brag Max. It's about safe, consistent progress.
- Use 90% moving forward. Example: If you hit 255 as your clean single โ set training max = 230 lb.
- Reset every 6โ8 weeks. Small jumps each cycle (5โ10 lb).
- Confidence boost. You hit a heavy single, but still leave fresh.
