Trains lats first, with real work landing on biceps, forearms, 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.
Vertical pull with pause at bottom; tempo builds lat strength and scapular control for hypertrophy and strength.
Full extension at bottom if shoulder mobility allows; pull chest to bar.
Derived from tempo research on this movement class — Schoenfeld BJ, Ogborn DI, Krieger JW.
Progresses by load: +1.25kg increments, earned session by session from your rep quality.
Same movement pattern, same progression continuity — these are the alternatives the app offers mid-session when a rack is taken or equipment isn't there.
Train with intention. Open Forge — it prescribes the weight, watches the reps, and does this arithmetic for every set you log.
