- If you don’t know your 1RM you need to take a day to max out.
- Keep the weights conservative.
- It’s preferable to have the squat cycle being a bit too light rather than a bit too heavy.

After completing the cycle it is not required to max out. You can simply add five kilos to your 1RM, recalculate and repeat the cycle.
Twist 1: You are allowed to max out both before and/or after the six work-sets in every session
If you do so try to avoid going to failure. The max-out is not mandatory and if you feel particularly weak on any given day it is perfectly alright to focus on the work-sets.
Twist 2: If you max out you are allowed to use a belt but the six work-sets must be done without the use of belt.
