Back Squat (20:00 To Establish a 1RM)

Today, we are tackling a 1RM Back Squat. The ideal rep scheme to follow would be to hit 5 reps @ 50%, 3 Reps @ 60%, 2 Reps @ 70%, then hit singles all the way up until 102%. In order to do this appropriately the correct weight jump should be from about 95% up to 102%, rather than hitting a larger jump.

Building up in the way we suggested allows for the right amount of weight jumps and reps to prime the system without fatiguing it along the way.
