Trainer Tips
- Slow the first round: Use the longest interval to perfect your form.
- Push intensity safely: Choose weights that challenge you without compromising technique.
- Core tight, breath steady: The descending format creates fatigue — control each rep.
- Progression: Increase weight or reduce rest next time for added intensity.
