For Week 6 You Have 3 Options
1. Skip Week 6. Just use projected one rep max from last week's 1-4 rep set. Start next cycle.
2. Use projected max for next cycle, but take a deload week (repeat week 1 but skip last upper workout).
3. Take this 6th week to actually find your 1 rep max. Then either deload or start new cycle.

Determining Projected Max


Take what you lifted in week 5, and multiply by 1.03 if you completed 2 reps, 1.06 if 3 reps, and 1.09 if 4 reps.

Enter your new 1RM's below to see your progress!


Old 1RM New 1RM Increase
Bench Press 120 115 -5.
Squat 185 140 -45.
Deadlift 200 180 -20.
