Legs first.
Everything else
follows.

The biggest muscles carry the biggest return — steps, curtsies and the hinge, loaded.

You lose it quietly

Adults lose roughly 3–8% of muscle mass per decade after thirty unless it is loaded.

Bone answers to load

Bone thickens where it is loaded and thins where it is not. Impact and resistance are its only real signal.

Tempo is free load

Three seconds down turns a light exercise into a hard one without adding a gram.

The clock

Round 1the warm-up — 70%, perfect form
0:00A1 → A2
2:00B1 → B2
4:00C1 → C2
Round 2the score round — beat every Round 1 number
6:00A1 → A2
8:00B1 → B2
10:00C1 → C2

Each couplet: 60 s scored → the strength set → 10 s to move on. Done at 12:00.

How to run it

  1. Strength first, speed second: full range beats extra reps every time.
  2. Two seconds down, one second up — the lowering builds the muscle.
  3. Add the harder version only after a clean last set.
  4. Breathe out on the effort. Never hold the breath under load.
