Note that these sets are now at (6) repetitions a piece, and we are going across for (4) sets. Holds the same weight on all sets.

All percentages below are based off Front Squat numbers. We are going to start with Pause Back Squats, building speed and power out of the bottom of the squat. Following, our 4×6 Front Squat for the week.

With a running clock:
