% of Front Squat
Notes:
This session should feel like a controlled progression into heavier front-squat doubles with moderate back-squat volume work. Athletes should manage bracing consistency through the transition between movements and maintain smooth, balanced foot pressure across all reps. The final set should be tough, but technically sound. Keep mechanics as the primary objective and the max reps as the secondary goal here on the final set of 5. We would look to cap the max effort set at 10 reps today.
