Workout Technique Guide

Reverse Pyramid

After warm-ups, perform the heaviest clean set first, then reduce load for higher-rep back-off sets.

When Ken Uses It

Useful for experienced lifters. Warm-up thoroughly and avoid grinding.

Coaching Rule

Use the method to improve the result, not just to make the workout harder. The client must still move well, recover well, and understand the purpose.

Example: 6 / 8 / 10 Reverse Pyramid

Set 1 heavy 6, set 2 lighter 8, set 3 lighter 10.

How To Progress It

Month 1: learn the format and keep effort controlled. Month 2: add a set, round, or slightly more load. Month 3: increase intensity only if form, recovery, and confidence are strong.
