Strict Press

5 reps at 70%
5 or more reps at 75%

This week we’re starting a two month winter strength building program for the Front Squat, Deadlift, and Strict Press. Use your true one rep max for each lift as the reference number for the percentages. The “5 or more” set should be a safe and reasonable max set.

There are percentage charts to help you calculate your weights posted in the gym by the water, as well as a full explanation of the two month program. You can also view that full explanation by going to:
