Loading Notes

• Build across the four sets, the last set should be the heaviest but still clean and locked out.

• All reps come from the rack or a clean front rack setup, reset the dip and the brace on every rep.

• If the bar drifts forward or the back arches, hold the load rather than climbing to the next jump.
