Plan at a glance

A free 12-week template based on the community spreadsheet structure. How to use: 1. Train four days per week on an upper/lower split. 2. T1 work starts with a rep-max exposure and back-off work, followed by three T2 and three T3 movements. 3. The six-week wave moves from 10RM work toward a 1RM test, then repeats for the second block. 4. Keep T2 and T3 work around RPE 8 and stop accessory sets before technique breaks down. Progression: - Update T1 training maxes after each six-week block and repeat the wave with the new maxes. - Progress T2 lifts through 6-8 reps and T3 lifts through 12-20 reps. - The original spreadsheet is flexible about exercise selection; this import uses a balanced default menu.
