Spoto Bench Routine

This program outlines a 6-week bench press progression where the weight is increased by 2.5 kg each week if the lifter completes 3 sets of 3 reps at the current weight across all sets. It starts with 3 sets of 3 reps at a hard weight in week 1, then increases the sets and weight each subsequent week if the previous week's weight was hit for 3x3. After 6 weeks, the lifter tests their 1 rep max. Assistance exercises of 2 chest, 2 triceps, and rotator cuff exercises are also recommended.
