16th -20th August - The load is at 80%...but effort is always 100'

This week sees volume increase slightly, focusing on 5 x5 at 80% on our core lifts (Squat, Deadlifts and Press).
80% of 1RM doesn’t sound much, but for 25 reps, it isn’t a push over.
Focusing on form is paramount as fatigue will set in.
