Key Principal: Individualization
Achieved through Silos
Weightlifting Silo Example #1
Silo 1: If your Squat Clean is >85% of your Front Squat… you get (5×3) FS at 84% – Rest 2:00 b/w sets
Silo 2: If your Squat Clean is <85% of your FS… you get (6×2) Squat Clean @82% (drop & reset) Rest 75s
Weightlifting Silo Example 2
Silo 1: If your Snatch 1RM is above 250/175lbs: Build to a 3-Position Snatch at RPE 8 → then SN Battery work
Silo 2: If your Snatch 1RM is from 200-250lbs M (or) 140-175lbs F, then Hang Snatch + Snatch Complex @RPE 8, then repeat it 2 more times (3 total working sets)
Silo 3: If your Snatch 1RM is below 200lbs for M (or) Below 140lbs F, then (6×1.1.1) @75% and climb to 85% with the goal being no misses
