How to run it

Progress the work, not the noise.

  1. 01Warm up first. Ramp-up sets prepare the movement and do not count toward the listed totals.
  2. 02Own the rep range. Keep most working sets within approximately 1–3 reps of failure.
  3. 03Earn the load increase. Add the smallest available increment after every set reaches the top of its range with clean form.
  4. 04Repeat the sequence. Use recovery days when needed, then resume with the next numbered session.

Operating protocol

Keep the plan measurable.

  1. 01Train from the log. Record load and reps so the next session has a clear target.
  2. 02Weigh consistently. Consistency is the key: weigh meat and sweet potato raw, and rice, oats, and cream of rice dry, the same way every time.
  3. 03Use the actual label. Product labels take priority over approximate nutrition values.
  4. 04Track the trend. Compare weekly averages rather than reacting to one workout or weigh-in.
