Trains quads first, with real work landing on glutes, hamstrings, core and more.
These are the weights Forge's volume audit actually computes with — deliberately conservative, so compounds don't masquerade as full coverage. A 0.5 means a set counts as half a set for that muscle: meaningful help, not a replacement for direct work.
Slow eccentric into stretch position with pause builds adductor control and mobility under load.
Keep front knee tracking over ankle; breathe into the stretch.

Progresses by reps, not weight — you earn harder sets, longer holds, or extra reps rather than plates.
Train with intention. Open Forge — it prescribes the weight, watches the reps, and does this arithmetic for every set you log.
