Workout 21283

Created: September 1, 2026

Description:

Front squat 3-3-3-2-2-1-1 reps
Stimulus and Strategy:
Today's the day to lift heavy relative to your capacity. It's a session that demands full focus and attention on every set.
Check back on your most recent heavy front squat days from April 8 and July 7 to help navigate today's weight, or if you know a recent 1-rep max front squat, aim for 75% or more of that number. If you did yesterday's workout, expect today's legs to reflect it — don't be discouraged if the weight feels lighter than usual. Start a new set every 3 minutes so you get plenty of rest between lifts; if you don't need that much recovery, go heavier, as long as your mechanics hold up. Newer athletes should lighten the load and prioritize quality reps over chasing heavier numbers.
