EMOM

EMOM

EMOM stands for every minute on the minute: at the top of each minute you perform a fixed number of reps, and whatever time is left over is the rest. The faster the work gets done, the longer the rest, so the format regulates density on its own.

In practice

It is good for accumulating quality volume on a technical lift, because the sets are short and the rest is enforced. It stops working once the work eats nearly the whole minute.

Program with these criteria, without the spreadsheet.
