This is the recommended Deload Protocol of The Egan Method. We deload every 6 weeks or sooner if we feel like your fatigue has accumulated to a point that we won’t recover from with our normal rest days.

Day 1
As always, we start every workout with The Egan Warm-up.
The first exercise is the clean & press,work up to 60% of your 1 rep max for 3 sets of 1 rep. Next we back Squat working up to 60% of our 1 rep max for 3 sets of 2 reps.
