Heavy 8
Then 2 sets x 8 reps at 90% of heaviest 8 rep
Objective: build to a heavy 8 rep squat. Then take 10% off that number and perform the designated number of sets for 8 repetitions.
Strength Tip
Grab the bar in your clean grip or in a front rack position. Keep your midsection tight and send your knees slightly forward. Avoid letting your back round, maintain thoracic extension and only squat as low as proper form allows. Weight should be in the middle of your foot as you reach the bottom – and as you come up from the bottom of the squat. When you initiate the drive up form the bottom drive with your elbows up!
