Warm-Up · RAMPPhase 1 · CNS potentiation & joint centration · 6-8 min

Time__ : __

1	Pallof Press360° brace — pressurise before the plates move	2 × 8
2	Band Pull-Apartsteady breathing rhythm	8 + 8
3	Ankle Dorsiflexionjoints packed — shoulders seated, lats loaded	2 × 10
4	Kettlebell Swingcrisp hip snap every rep	3 × 3 @ 30%

Phase 2 · Primary Max-Force AnchorRamp to top single/double @ RPE 9-9.5 (90-95%) · back-offs 2 × 2 @ 85% · rest 3-4 min

Progression: ME rule: work to ONE top single/double at RPE 9-9.5 — never a grinder. Bar slows to a crawl = pass the attempt. 2 back-off doubles at 85%, 3-4 min rest.
