AMRAP Set

The last prescribed set of main work on week 1, 2, and 3 has a "+" on it — that means AMRAP (As Many Reps As Possible).

Do as many clean reps as you can, then rack the bar.

• Don't sacrifice form. An ugly rep doesn't count.
• Leave a rep or two in reserve on weeks 1 and 2; on week 3, you can push closer to failure if your form holds.
• 5 reps is the minimum target; the program assumes you'll beat that most weeks.

Hitting big AMRAPs is how your Training Max climbs over time.
