Reading the blueprint
Six sessions make this a demanding schedule. Use the example to understand the structure, not as a default prescription.
All listed sets are sample working sets. Preparatory sets, equipment setup, load selection, and rest periods need to be chosen for the individual.
For a different exercise, browse movements with the same main group and equipment in the exercise library.
