Back Squat (Every 2:00 x 4 Sets:
3 Back Squats

% of 1RM Back Squat
Working Load: 80%)

This is the final primer before next week's 1RM Back Squat. These sets are meant to be strong and technically sharp, not maximal. The volume and loading are intentionally manageable. Braced midline, consistent depth, and a powerful drive out of the hole are the priorities on every rep. Athletes should finish all four sets feeling primed and confident, not fatigued.

Modifications:

Level 1: Every 2:00 x 4 Sets: 5 Back Squats at a load that allows full depth and clean mechanics across all four sets, building slightly across the window if positions are strong

Hotel Gym / Travel: Every 2:00 x 4 Sets: 5 Dual Dumbbell Goblet Squats or Dual Dumbbell Front Squats at a challenging load, maintaining the same technical priorities of braced midline and consistent depth
