How progression works

Linear: +2.5 kg on success, deload 10% after 2 missesDouble: reach rep ceiling on all sets → +2.5 kgLinear: +5 kg on success, deload 10% after 2 misses

DropSet runs this progression for you — every session's weights are computed automatically from your training maxes and logged AMRAP sets.

High Frequency PPL — every set, every session

Percentages are of your training max (TM). AMRAP = as many reps as possible on the final set.
