My coach will be adding an Oly day into my program, and she'll likely put me through a squat cycle, so I need to change my routine around a bit to add in the BB work. Mon and Fri will be squat days, and I'm guessing Wed will be light/technique work. I've settled on doing two-a-days on Mon and Fri (Oly morning, full body BB evening) - this is flexible enough that I can move my BB sessions to Tues and/or Sat as time and energy permits. I'll need to limit lower body accessory work to maintenance levels (like a set or two of each movement at RPE 6-7) but I think this will be doable. The other option is 3 BB sessions of push/pull/legs in the evenings on Mon, Wed, and Fri (or Tues, Thurs, and/or Sat morning). I just need to try some setups out and see what works.

I hit 120kg x 10 on kickstand RDLs. I want to work up to 140x5 on each leg (or whatever I can get) and then I'll just maintain that for a while.
