Today, each set is on a 3:00 clock, offering increased recovery time compared to earlier in the cycle. This extra rest should help the weights feel lighter and more manageable as the load continues to grow. With this structure, athletes can showcase both muscular endurance and strength by aiming for a max effort set at 80% of their 1RM, with a 12-rep cap to maintain quality of movement.
