    • 212 reps x 45 kgRIR 2
    • 312 reps x 45 kgRIR 1

    Keep pelvis level and knees aligned with toes. Increase load only after all sets hit target reps and RIR stays within plan.

    • 210 reps x 24 kgRIR 2
    • 310 reps x 24 kgRIR 1

    Push knees out over mid-foot and maintain a stacked torso. Keep load stable across sets and progress only after full-range reps are consistent.

    Lateral Lunge

    Rest 1m 15s

    • 112 reps x 0 kgRIR 3
    • 212 reps x 0 kgRIR 2
    • 312 reps x 0 kgRIR 1

    Sit hips back into the working side, keep the non-working leg long, and control the push back to center. Progress by deeper range and slower eccentric before external load.
