Saturday June 1

Athletes have been working off 90% of their 1 rep max (training max).  During this second cycle you will add 10 pounds to your training max for all lower body lifts (Back Squat and Deadlift) and 5 pounds for all upper body lifts (Bench Press and Shoulder Press).  For example:

1 rep Max Deadlift= 400 lbs
90% Max (Training Max) = 360 lbs
Training Max for for 2nd Cycle = 370 lbs

If you were failing before achieving the desired 5,3, or 1 rep, DO NOT SCALE UP.  The smaller the jumps you make, the better you'll be in the long run.  Unfortunately, this requires an EGO CHECK, which isn't easy.  Trust in the "small jump" system and reap the benefits long term.  REMEMBER TO ALWAYS THINK LONG TERM.
