Front Squat (Weightlifting Variable Reps & Sets)
All percentages based on 5x5 Front Squat Test. The structure here is a volume and muscular endurance session that builds to a genuinely heavy effort by the final set. The early sets should feel controlled and deliberate, with athletes reinforcing front rack integrity and depth on every rep. Sets four and five start to demand real effort. The set of 3 should feel close to a true 3RM; athletes should arrive at it having earned it through quality work, not rushed loading. I t’s generally around 75–80% of your 1RM .
Modifications:
Level 1: Work to a challenging but technically sound load across all six sets, reducing percentage targets if needed to maintain a high elbow position and consistent depth; goblet squat or dual dumbbell front squat are appropriate substitutions if barbell front rack positioning is a limiting factor.
Hotel Gym / Travel: Dual dumbbell front squat or goblet squat, building across six sets to the heaviest load that maintains an upright torso and full depth throughout.

"Juggernaut" (AMRAP - Rounds and Reps)
For Rounds + Reps:
8:00 AMRAP
2 Squat Cleans
4 Deadlifts
24 Double Unders (A: 36 singles)
Barbell: (Rx 185/125, S 155/105)
Goals: 8 Rounds
Stimulus: Barbell Cycling
RPE: 8.5/10
Primary Objective: Quality technique throughout, efficiently breaking the bar off the floor on both the squat cleans and deadlifts while maintaining a strong receiving position across all rounds.
Secondary Objective: Stay consistent on pacing across all 8 minutes; the short time domain compounds quickly and a steady rhythm from round one through the finish is the goal.
