For the barbell lunges, should it be front rack or back rack? Also what should the weight be and should it stay the same or should I be building over the 3 sets?

Hey TJ, it is back rack. We also do Front Rack Barbell Lunges & will always specify if we want it to be “Front rack.” You are building over the 3 sets. You should aim for 2 heavy working sets. Use the first one as a bridge to your heavier last 2 sets.

Thanks so much Mikaela for helping out! We try to post videos for those types of movements but didn’t have it on film to be able to link. I’ll work on that. Are you in the FB group yet Brendon? I
