INSTRUCTIONS:
You should only need to adjust:

-Your One Rep Max (1RM) in column B on "INPUTS"


- Your rounding (5 = lbs, 2.5 =kgs)

- Start lifting and write the number of reps you achieve on your last set into the green cells on "ROUTINE", this determines how much weight you'll lift for that
movement next time.

CUSTOMIZATION OPTIONS
- If you want to swap in/out exercises, please do so on the 1RM list and write in an estimated 1RM (use the calculator tab if you'd like). The lift should then appear
in your routine. If you want to enable progression, add it to the progression list too.
-Only the lifts you see in the "Progression" section will automatically progress. This is ok - you don't usually want to progress accessory movements each workouts
anyway. This can be done based on feel. If you want to add a lift to progress automatically, there is space for you to do so.
- After 12 weeks, you can use the 1RM calculator to determine your new 1RM and begin another cycle. You can also do this at any time (e.g. after 4, 6, or 8 weeks)
but the progression of this program is so fast I don't see any significant advantage to frequently recalculating your 1RM

[1] This does not need to be edited. It will automatically populate after choosing a progression rate and a lift.

[2] 2 = 2*5 for lbs or 2*2.5 for kg, so 10 lbs per week or 5kg per week

1 = 5 lbs per week or 2.5kg per week

.5 = 2.5 lbs per week or 1.25kg per week


(will result in 5 lb increase every 2 weeks when the goal number of reps are hit)

[3] 5 = lb
2.5 = kg
