This four week block is fairly high in intensity with a focus on building consistency at weights close to your one-rep max. Each week you will alternate between building up to a heavy triple or double followed by some back-off sets, with singles at the end of the week to build consistency with heavy weight. Squatting is very frequent and some light hypertrophy work is peppered in. There is five training days per week with Day 4 being a light day to make the singles on Day 5 go well. We suggest a deload week prior to performing this program.
