Loading Notes

• Start at 70% and build across the six sets to a heavy complex for the day, not a max single.

• The limiter is the split jerk for most athletes, so pick the number that keeps the overhead clean and locked.

• If footwork gets sloppy or the front squat stalls, hold the load for the remaining sets rather than climbing.

• Loads are suggested, not prescribed; pick weights that keep all 12 rows strict and all 18 curls in two sets or fewer on the final round.

• Rope climbs come first while grip is fresh, get up and down under control rather than racing the interval.

• Aim to finish each set around 2:30-3:00 so there is real rest before the next interval starts.
