Whiteboard of the Day

Plan to have around 10 minutes to build up to a heavy 5 rep in each one of the exercises. Start with a couple 5-8 rep sets in each lift before switching finding your heavy five.

The goal for today is to lift as heavy as possible for each movement. Aim to hit around 75% or more of your 1-rep-max for each movement.

You will lift in groups of 2-3 to ensure you get ample rest between lifts and make it easier to change out plates.

Consider taking slightly larger jumps when adding load for each lift to preserve as much energy as possible for your heaviest lift.

Following the workout, we will clean up and then spend time cooling down.
