Your work is great! We all really appreciate it. Any chance of extending this out to CSPS review?

[@Jmendozzad]

how can i add weight for youth athletes? can i follow rpe or rir? when do i know is sure?

[@TheMovementSystem]

You can use %1RM, RPE or RIR. For example you can program 70% 1RM, 7RPE, or 3RIR those are all great options
