Depending on the results of your latest test, continue with the appropriate week and column.
Note, if you weren’t able to manage 75 squats, be sure to repeat Week 5.
- If you managed 75 – 90 squats, follow column 1.
- If you completed between 91 & 110, column 2 is for you.
- More than 110 consecutive squats? Tremendous! You’ll be following column 3.

Well? Did you make it through Week 6? If you did; congratulations – you should be very proud of your achievements and ready for one final test.
If you struggled with Week 6 (many people do), no problem, just repeat the appropriate week and try again. Maybe an extra couple of days rest will benefit you?
