HOW DOES THE PROGRAM WORK?
Hypertrophy
Here you start preparing the muscles,
ligaments and tendons for the more heavy
lifting ahead. This is the time to improve your
squat technique.
Strength development
You will rotate between a light, medium and
heavy day. Here you have to train hard
enough to allow adaptations but rest enough
to avoid over training.
Peak phase
This is where you learn how to handle heavy
load/1rep maxes. It is important to reduce
fatigue because otherwise you can not lift at
your max limit.
Reps and load
That is okay.
Foot position
The stance that allows you to go the deepest
without butt winking, is your right stance. Try
different stances.
Mobility routines

Phase 3
WEEK 1
The goal is to reduce fatigue in order to
properly load the bar and lift heavy.
Beginners can benefit from extra accessory
work as their 90% is not as heavy as someone
that is considered "advanced". Feel free to add
in your upper body or cardio but have in mind
that lifting this heavy is very tiring for the body,
even though you might not feel it directly in
the muscles.
