Deload week aka week 5 aka the week you give your body a slight rest after pushing your weights to new highs and probably induced some soreness. A DELOAD week is meant to have your body work through the same movement patterns but with less volume and at a faster pace just to get the blood flowing, maybe break a small sweat, and give yourself more time for recovery. That said, here is your rule of thumb for DELOAD week: use a weight that is 40-60% of the max weight you used on each exercise from week 4b(whatever weight multiplied by .4-.6) and complete each exercise for 2 sets of 20. Have fun and enjoy the metaphorical break! ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ Warm Up โ€” 5 min Backwards Walk High Intensity Engagement 1a. Worlds Greatest Stretch with 2 Push Up โ€” 2 x 5 each 1b.
