Meet Routine

If the meet is on a Saturday, then on two Saturdays before, do a mini-test and find out your 1 RM on each of the lifts. The percentages for each set are based off of the 1RM for each lift as found in the mini-test. Warmups are not shown. No exercises other than the competition lifts are supposed to be done except for stretching and light ab work. No accessory or auxiliary lifts at all. On off days a brisk 30 minute walk is permitted/recommended.
