*We have been back squatting with sets of 5 on Mondays for this 3 week strength cycle, so use your recorded weights and notes to help dial in your effort levels during this cycle.
**If you don’t have a reasonable estimated 1 RM, then work towards a 5 RTM today. 5 RTMs are typically around 80% of an estimated 1 RM, so you can use that number for upcoming workouts and cycles.
