Brick by Frick V 2.0

Structure:
- Low volume, high intensity 4 day upper/lower split.
- Session length 40-45 min.
- 6 exercises per session.
- 2 working sets per exercise.
- Set 1 RPE 8.5.
- Set 2 RPE 9.5-10 if safe to do so.
- It’s ok tho leave 1-2 in the tank on squat and deadlift variations, use spotters arms if you can. For safe exercises like leg curls/extensions, raises and arms failure and even beyond is encouraged with partial reps,rest pause sets or holding your last rep for 7-10 sec.
- Every 6 weeks feel free to rotate 1–2 movements, which keeps progress going without resetting everything.
- Take a deload every 6 weeks.
   Reduce weight to 80% and stop 3 reps short of                
   failure.
- Double progression- If you hit the top of the rep range on both sets add,
+ 5 lbs to the barbell
+2.5 lbs to the barbell (or reps if limited)
-Deload when main lifts start to stall or every 6 weeks.
