Front Squat (Weightlifting Variable Reps & Sets)
Athletes who did not complete that test should start at approximately 75% of their estimated 1RM and build across the five sets accordingly. The max rep set at 110% should land in the 3-5 rep range. If an athlete fails before reaching 3 reps, they likely started from an inflated base number.
Modifications:
Level 1: Working at loads that feel moderate and approachable, prioritize positional quality over adding weight, goblet squat or dual dumbbell front squat as a substitution if the barbell front rack is not yet established.
Hotel Gym / Travel: Dual dumbbell front squat, Every 2:30 x 5 Sets following the same rep scheme, select the heaviest load available and adjust by set.
